The zebra python - nice! Zebra-striping has been used as camouflage on ships.

Don't quite see how this counts as camouflage (unless they regularly sail amongst flocks of sea-zebras)... maybe just designed as head-ache inducing for attackers, what?

Splendid!

Some fun with rescaling...

Image

Planet textures holding up well at x4 (perlin off) and OXP compatibility appears generally very good.

Not a bad place to be held in a queue.

Alpha a tad too high on this image but otherwise quite nice.

Yes, mm nice. As with the pics on the other thread, your rescaling efforts seem to do a lot to strengthen suspension of disbelief. Very well done.

The planet is positioned at (proportionally) x1.5 distance from the witchpoint, so there's a wider view on system entry.
BTW, I may have a task for your considerable skills, if you are interested :wink:

That's all I can hope to achieve realistically, so if you think so then that's got to be good :D It's getting all of the elements to play together nicely that is the tricky part.

Thanks both :)
