About the licensing, we had recently a talk about it here: ?topic=1183.msg11166#msg11166
We all have the same heaven, but not the same horizon.

i know but no real conclusion has been reached there. But seriously i just created the image for fun, and for other people to (hopefully) enjoy. I wouldn't even care if you would license it under your own name. And since it's not really an original image i don't even think i can license it as my own work. So for now I 'm going to forget abiut the license unless someone brings forward a a complete solution to the problem. My English doesn't even permit me to understand half of what all those different licenses say.  ::)

hows about the "use it in good health" license.  ;)



 
‎"to prepare for disaster is to invite it, to not prepare for disaster is a fools choice" -me (kim-lav_coyote25-metcalfe) - it used to be attributed to unknown - but adding the last bit , it now makes sense.

Before any discussion starts: I gladly take it as public-domain and relicense it under the "GPL v2 or later". :)

Very good work, that image is much better then the old one. But i think solar panels shouldn't be trasparent, even if the graphic effect you used on them is just fantastic

It does look phenomenal.  But the lighting/shader on the struts towards the right could use a more 'metallic' look.  May I have a copy of source file?  I want to try it in Blender's rendering engine, with Ambient Occlusion turned on.

what kind of format do you want ? 3ds ?
cause i don't know how warzone exports the texture files in .3ds. I could package it and send it all to you but you might have to retexture it. Not sure.

Keep in mind that most of the time in space you don't have such soft diffuse shadows because the light sources are usually spots (like the sun) and there are no objects near that make the light bounce to your object.
No fighting in the war room!
