WOW! Yep! Gotta agree with Welshy on both counts there. I liek the first one best of all because I can see so clearly the textures & the depth of the colour. Fantastic work!

Thanks Welshy, I did for you the top award Thanks Barbie, I am glad you like it. Thanks oma. I create all the elements using Anim8tor, all the textures created in PDN, then organized them in PDN and enhanced the colors. Oma, this is a short video showing the method of doing that weird object. And these are the results: Just flat With flat texture And even more adding 3D roughness to the surface Oh and Goonfella, there is a Beta version of Anim8tor for windows 7, I am using it and it is very good so far.

thanks Saragon, that video is amazing. I actually downloaded that program last month but haven't had a chance to go thru the readme text on how and what each button controls.
lovely work you are just so talented when it comes to computor 3d programs.
ciao OMA

Wow - very cool! I like them both.
I watched part of the video. That program looks like a lot of fun.

I absolutely love "Virus Attack." I wish I could send it right back at the spammers and give them a taste of their own medicine. Besides the point, it is mind-boggling fantastic! Love what you do with Anim8tor. Wow.

Awesome Sargon. I saw the thumbs and thought they looked good but when I clicked through to the full size image - wow! Super combo of programs there. I really must get to know a 3D program. I think you can do so much more with PDN using one . Top marks.

just wanted you to know I watched the video again. After finally reading the pdf pages from that program I start to understand how you went about this.
I've been playing around trying to do the eggplant tut. I'm learning the tools right now. LOL Oma is learning a new 3d program.

Sargon, those are beautiful pieces you added. I like how the situation at the Fanatics board inspired you to create those pieces. Virus are such fantastic creature. They have the ability to create their own cells by invading and mutating the host's cell. I think those pieces truly captured the wonder of virus.

@ oma, Thank you very much, I think Anim8or is the one of the easiest 3D programs and it is very light on the PC, with great quality and result, it has some decent help file, explaining every single button and effect and how to use it, By the way I haven't use half of them yet. @ blackpenny, thanks, it is indeed. @ Helen, your reply makes me smile , thanks for your comment. @ Goonfella, thanks, yes that is correct, when I use different programs, I use PDN in the final touches and enhancements, it is the best at that. @ chrisco97, thanks mate. @ Lance McKnight, thank very much, I am glad you see it like that, and it is true what you mentioned about viruses. I was trying Liquify to make the texture of the planet:

Liquify makes a neat texture on the planet. Reminds me of Jupiter.

Isn't it amazing that something as dangerous as a virus could be turned into a piece of fantastic artwork...inspired Sargon..

Your planet seems like it's spinning with perfection. Love it.

Your planet seems like it's spinning with perfection. Love it. It does seem to be spinning . Love the background of it. It will never cease to amaze me how you take other programmes and do things with them. I envy you your patience to sit down and take the time to learn. You're one of the big influences for me sticking with PDN and learning what I have

Lovely planet Sargon. Texture looks quite realistic and very Jupiter like. I think it just needs a bit more colour representing the different bands of clouds. Pastel ones I think would be best. The background is excellent as well - an image in itself. I`ll have to try out that Anim8or for Win7. Thanks for the tip off. edit - downloaded! Now to work out how to use it.

It looks very real to me. A very good spacescape.

That is definitely Jupiter. Wonderful space art. The nebulae in the background really makes the planet stand out from the rest, but still has a beauty on its own.
