Groover_landing
 

This is my 2nd ever animation, and Im looking for crits. I was told this is THE Maya forum... so fingers crossed...

And here is a rendered vid....

It was a rushed affair, but I do know some things I would like to change...

There is an arm sticking through the cockpit as it lands (sorted though)

Ship looks a little outta control at start

Landing is a tad to abrupt...

But, if you see anything else please let me know...

Cheers

Besides the points you already mentioned, I just have to say it would be great if there were some more points of reference in the background, it's hard to judge movement.

UPDATE:

Just been re-doing the ship. What do ya think?

evening!

Just thought I'd post an update....

I tried to add the logo's using projection, but it got all screwy and logos were appearing on the other side as well, but in reverse. So, I just cut up the surface and applied shaders with image files attached... But I am happy thus far...

Does anyone know why it was so screwy with Projections?
