Thread: Aarklash in space

  1. #1

    Wip Aarklash in space

    Inspired by the good idea and work of Wired, I've decided to do a future spatial version of a fantasy world I love : Aarklash (or confrontation/ragnarok).

    Here's my start on this. The three suns are Lahn (in the center), Ley and Lyth. I think I have to organise this more, maybe mute a bit the background...

    Thanks Gamerprinter!

    I've done a bit more. Now, I'm wondering how organize the informations/close-ups on planets. I was thinking about a panel by star system or a panel by countries alliances (darkness/destiny/light). Thoughts?

    Hey Ilanthar, this looks promising! Only thing I might change/modify at the moment is the background: to me it appears too bright, which makes it hard(er) to see the details.

    It looks beautiful! Maybe to beautiful, I think that map part is lost just a little. Wonderful work so far!

    In fact, I find myself the background too busy and too blurry... So I played with other backgrounds, worked one, and here's another test. I think I like it better.

    Don't know about that particular one, but most images like that are from NASA, and as such are totally free to use for any purpose.

    Chick has been faster than me . Yes, it's Nasa pictures. The first one is NGC 6188, a nebula in Ara, the new one is the Orion Nebula. I just removed the big stars from that last one.
    A quick test for placing the systems details... Still not sure I like it.
