And that tall tower in the back looks like something from Dubai.

 

It stroke my eyes too !

... Funny to notice that if you search for city + clouds on Google, the more notable pictures that may be used for the Empire one as immediate references (I don't dare to say "inspiration" as this word is very heart-related in my language) are justly Dubai !...

 

 

 

... Is Culture and Creativity narrowing ?

 

I have nothing against digital paintings that I happen to use myself but the lazyness of mind that comes with it is sometimes quite... Obvious.

I mean this as a general statement, not personal to Vaderios.

I really don't see why we need to change the background buildings in that scene, they could use some of Ady's colour correction, sure, but I don't see anything wrong or outdated about them.

The sky and *some* of the buildings in the back do scream matte painting, but I really like their designs. And I think that changing them with generic buildings would take away from the beauty of this shot.

Just my two cents if course :)

Children in the backseat of a car can cause accidents, but accidents in the backseat of a car can cause children.

Yes the scene at the minute is very flat, just a slow tracking zoom to the subject, the only things breaking up the painting are the cloud-cars.

A while back ago i posted a mock-up to try and break up the foreground & background to show the scene in layers of depth.

Slightly off-topic, but I have a question about Adywan's color-corrected 1080p episode V. I see there is the AVCHD version, around 7GB, and there is also an mkv version that is around 14GB. I understand what mkv and AVCHD files are, but I wasn't aware that Adywan made an mkv version. Is the mkv version actually done by Adywan? If I just want to play it on my PC, will the 14GB mkv look any better than the AVCHD version, or will they look the same? Does the MKV have a higher bitrate? Seems to be a pretty huge difference in file size.

At the request of Vaderios, here's a little analysis of Cloud City proportions.

 

Actually it's not little it's huge, so click my sig for details… :)

Actually in older posts the coloring in GOUT was better from 2004 or adys from the point of view that it had more natural light and shadow behaviour.

Now i still support ady's coloring because the CG flyby doesnt match not even close to the GOUT colors.

I mention in earlier posts with the help of Imp fighter that the blending from the flyby and the static shot(leia's window) the buildings are in the wrong place as well many other elements.

There is nothing particural wrong with the buildings as i mentioned but as you can see ILM managed to make new CG buildings and mostly ignore the other architecture that appears in bespin. So from matter of continuity get rid of them if you can.

 

Thanks for the analysis on bespin savmagoett!:D:D:D

 Don't be shy ;) Let's see

 

Well, it's more simple than the original in a way and I think it works better. It gave me the will to play around. There's obviously a problem with this painting, but that's not a good reason enough to replace it with another one *imho*.

I love McQuarries' concept paintings notably for their somehow "naive" touch, and because there are a lot of things unsaid that your imagination will continue... But his matte paintings are always flat, mold and coldly executed.

Anyway... the air is pure, then not thick, the sun gives, I would then propose at least to temper light and shadows relations in another way, not mentionning the colors. Yet after 15 or 20 minutes it gives another result that I think more "realistic", but don't know if it matches with the whole sequence... (the shadows in the room would perhaps deserve to be darkened too, not sure).

Skipping the dark awful building on the left should do the trick...

 

 

... Now go back to work.

Well, I'll understand when I learn some French and go visit a French forum.

In the meantime, since this is an English forum, please follow ady's wishes for his thread.  The rest of us non-French speakers would appreciate it as well.

I've always thought it should look darker through the window Leia is pacing in.

That depends, where are u from? I'm from Brussels…
That being said I bitterly regret TFU in French, I would have prefer it in English, I just didn't pay attention to it :/

Ah, sorry, don't know that, must be some video game… 'No for me.

I assumed he found out that I speak French because of the French mission objective on top of a TFU screengrab I used in my Cloud City analysis.

Voilà, now you know everything :)
Sorry about the digression guys, I just love English, but, in this ocean of Englisness that is Internet, it was fun to bump into someone who speak my language for once…

Next time I speak in Aurek-Besh or Huttese, I'll translate it, promise ;)

Any chance this will be released in time for the 30th anniversary on May 21st?

 We take a Duke Nukem Forever Philosophy on this particular question.

Its done... when its done. ;)

Matticon.

Yeah, but DNF was delayed for ten years and then the entire team was fired and the project canned.

Way to fill us all with hope with that comparison!

 

Anyway, to all the smart alecks out there... let me rephrase it and see if it meets with your exacting standards:

 

Hey adywan (in all seriousness), do you think "when it's done" will be in the next two months?

December is the target date now.  As Angel said immediately after you asked the first time:

Well May 2010 is out of the question for a release date now.

Must have missed it in the shuffle since then, eh? ;-)
