Tantive IV Corridor

I figured I would post up the environment for the picture I am working on. I am still going to add 1 or 2 stormtroopers, and 1 or 2 rebel troopers, but this was the "easy" part.

Shit man, thats epic 0.o

Very niceee

but you forgot all the dead rebels

Edit: Didn't see your text haha. You should really make your font colour a bit more visible :P

epic stuff pet !
i think it's perfectly visible :P
love to see the final outcome

EPIC! this is gonna be brilliant

I have been typing in this colour for how long now? Too long. Anyways, thanks, I wasn't expecting responces this fast. My plan is to have 1 or 2 storm troopers at the far end, and 1 or 2 rebel troopers at the near end, rebel out of focus, storm in focus. Anyways, I will see how it works out later.

That is some sick work dude!

rofl, support.
DO EEEEEETT.

Not going to add Vader. I am avoiding using any major character, and I love how the stormtrooper suit looks.

OMG
Great work Pet, as always.
:)

Not trying to pop your bubble or anything, it looks nice, but not amazing. Nice coloring and lighting but as in difficulty probably not so hard but thats why you said "easy" part :) :)

I know, it is just time consuming, and this is just the base for the rest of my picture. But, even though it may look easy, it is not. I have added some subtle things in there which might not be seen a first glance but that is what I wanted.

Keep it up. You always have a good sense of gradient and element. I totally want to see what this looks like D:

Pretty epic bud, I think the shading on the door frame is a bit off, but overall this is pretty win.

honestly it looks very much like a WIP even at this point. still looks far from where it should be before you start adding people. one major thing is that if you're going to have shading in some places (like along the corridor) you need to have shading everywhere (the floor, the lights, the door frames, everything). if you do that it'll look much more complete. looks good so far, just saying that it should be added.

another thing to watch out for is the gradient shading. it's nice and all to have the smooth shading, but unless you plan on gradient shading the storm troopers too which would be a really difficult gradient mesh on the helmet I suspect it'll look awkward to have gradient shading in some places and vector shadow shading in others. obviously i don't know what you intend to do from here out, just point out that the problem could arise.

The only shading I really need to add in, is the the far wall, slightly lighter at the top, and a little darker on the bottom. I want the floor to be an even colour, because that is what those style lights are for, as for shading the lights themselves, this is futuristic, I don't need to make it look like they are fluorescent tubes or spots.

As for shading the characters, the great thing about the storm troopers are, that most of their highlights will be reflections, which have hard edges, and a gentle gradient over the rest, but not to pronounced. The hard part is matching the dark from behind, and the light from above, but even with hard edges to the highlights it will be accurate.
