[WIP] s117 sky

[legionaire45]

How are you constructing your skyboxes exactly?

Are you making a hemisphere and applying the textures you paint directly to it? Is it a hemisphere with the sky texture on it and then you have a flat plane with the mountain texture on it?

Looks nice, although it definitely has that flat Bungie matte painted look to it; not necessarily a bad thing imo. It fits Halo anyway.

Sweet sky baby.

Hemisphere with planes. The mountain is on a shaped plane, though.

If you look at the mountain in H3 there's no green. It's too far away. The nearer hills will be green.

distant objects always appear with a tint of blue.

H3 PANORAMA:

I didn't make that^

As you can see from mine, I'm including a lot of detail that's not in h3. I'm going to change mine a bit since the lighting isn't right based on the suns position.

Holy crap that looks awesome. Nice work :o!

I can't believe that is painted. o_0 That is so frigging beautiful.

[StankBacon]

you drew this with a tablet?

damn.

I just got a shitload of reps for that panorama. I should have made it clearer; that's an edited screenshot from Halo 3, I didn't make that. I'm using it as a reference. Hopefully mine looks as good as that in the end

I was going to rep you for the second pic you posted, but I can't you for a while apparently.

hrghlblrgh I wish I could texture

Also I hate that pano, unless it exists in a res that's at least 800 high.
