Tag As FavoriteComment		These are threee gunships of the Crescent Squadron patrolling a superficial territory line in a peaceful part of space. The border separates two warring empires, the Emerald Throne (from which these ships are native) and the Democratic Republic of Betelgeuze (the enemy).
They don't expect to fight today, but they're overloaded with Pink and Orange missiles anyway.

This was my second picture. The background is inspired from/based on a piece of space in the computer game Freelancer. Unfortunately, I hadn't discovered the 'antialiasing' button yet, so the outlines are sort of grainy.
This picture was made with Blender 3D and Photoshop.

I think that it is an awesome picture. I still wonder if it was drawn or computer animated, tell me if you know. Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:-) Bjørn Grimsmo replies: "Well, considering this is my picture, I really _should_ know, shouldn't I? 12The models were made with a computer modelling program called Blender 3D. The background was painted in photoshop, though with some special effects and filters."
