Light speed (CLOSED)

This vortex is one of the best I've seen, by the looks of the wireframe, you made a physical vortex as well. I hope your machine was able to keep up with your light-speed spaceships and not fall behind
Best wishes with your entry.

Mon, May 20, 2024Thank you drjivago thats very kind. I was going for a Farscape style without so much blue. More of a black hole than worm hole.
The prop is a scaled up weapon/magic effect. I re textured it and scaled it up again then a lot of photoshop.
Iray then I used a filament render to highlight the front of the mother ship.
This one wasn't as taxing on my rig as some of my renders

It's a good thing you gave it some burning red color variations, otherwise it may have been plain, with just one dominant color, like you said.
In other words, looks more dynamic this way.
-Example of a black, blue and a white light wormhole :

Tue, May 21, 2024Looks like farscape. Great effects for the time but not enough color 
I may dust off the old dvds and put it on in the background while I work

Tue, May 21, 2024Yes, I think it is :- ) You have a sharp eye Bonj. Well in the end, looks like you agree with me, as your vortex is more colorful compared to this.
I called it a vortex because some might say it's a wormhole or a black hole, just using a more generic word here on my behalf as its structure.
''The major distinction between a wormhole and a black hole is that a wormhole is a funnel-shaped space-time tunnel between two points between universes, whereas a black hole is a cosmic body with extreme gravity''.
In other words, black holes are more proven than the existence of wormholes.
''While researchers have never found a wormhole in our universe, scientists often see wormholes described in the solutions to important physics equations. Most prominently, the solutions to the equations behind Einstein's theory of space-time and general relativity include wormholes''.
''Einstein's theory of general relativity mathematically predicts the existence of wormholes, but none have been discovered to date. A negative mass wormhole might be spotted by the way its gravity affects light that passes by''.
You can think of wormholes as shortcuts in space.
