The spheres in the back do look too big...

Timstone · #44 January 15th, 2005, 05:11 PM

That is becasue perspective is turned off.
When I turn it on, the spheres look... weird. According with reality, but weird.
So I turned it off en I�m rather pleased with it.
But suggestions, critisism and demands are always welcome.

Just make them a little smaller manually...

I like Timstone's reactor with big balls.

Hmm. Internal editing software non-functional.

Anyway, I like the "triple". I was going to suggest this triangular shape, but you beat me to it

Thanks Wildcard06!
I'm still ain dubio with the final form. I was thinking about a classic "four-ball-reactor", but that is too obvious. Ah well, I'll come up with something... eventually.

Okay, finally I've had some time to make the largest reactor pic. Unfortunately I still haven't got the time to render them properly (with colours and textures). [img]/threads/images/graemlins/Sad.gif[/img]
For ease of watching I've included a pic which displays all the reactors at once.
As always comments are welcome.

I still think the isometric view is bizarre... and the fat "fins" on the double, triple, and modular reactors just look wrong somehow. But the first two look great! [img]/threads/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif[/img]

Thanks Ed.
About the "wrong" feel of the pics, I really don't know what might be wrong with them. Ah well, doesn't matter.
Thanks for the comment!
