I had time some weeks ago to work in MoI and Bryce 7. I choose a neat looking ship from a cover illustration by Frank Tinsley. It's stylized and not photo realistic but... I had fun doing it. If I was to continue with this one more realistic textures and maps would be necessary but I'm already thinking about my next model...

Cool retro project David!

The render style there is a good fit for a more illustration type look, it's a better match for the cover than a super photo-real type anyway.

Thanks for the comments!

Excellent work!

I also love using the old Analog SciFi magazine covers as inspiration and to practice my modeling, especially with MoI.
