Hi all.
This is something I've been fiddling with on and off for several months. I'm
mostly happy with it, just not ure anout the guy standing at the end.
Without him, the scene seems to lack focus, but I'm not sure if he's the
right thing.
Suggestions? Comments?

Looks pretty cool. I think the lighting needs a bit of work, there's some
wierd shadows around the table in the background and near the ceiling, also
some coloured lights with a short fall off would look more sci-fi. Have you
considered using coloured lighting? Here's some coloured lighting from a
remarkably similar scene in event horizon:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Eventstasis.jpg
I'm not sure about the composition of your image, I think it emphasizes the
empty space inside the ship too much (rather than space outside, or the
people in stasis). The right wall and floor take up a lot of the image and
there's nothing much to see there. If you dim the lighting on those parts or
adjust the camera a bit (wider angle to show more of the stasis pods, or
narrower angle to emphasize the view out the window). For my taste I'd say
the camera's placed too tidily, the background wall seems completely in-line
with the image which makes it all feel a bit 2D.
The other thing that jumps out at me is the lack of refraction on the tubes,
I think there might be a little there but I'm sure it should be much more
distorted. Of course you may have to put that down to artistic license
'cause refraction would have a funhouse mirror effect on your people.
Oh, and there's not enough generic glowing displays and meaningless buttons
& switches! :-D
Anyway just a few nitpicks, the overall effect & concept is good. How did
you do the metallic material on the walls and floor?

I've seen this scene before, possibly on the cover of Amazing Stories, or the
like. A bit before your time, I know :-)
If the people are in statis then I think that they should be rigid. If they are
in suspended animation and in a liquid filled container, then I think that they
should be naked. (Who wants to wake up in soaked clothes?)
I like the empty space, good composition I think. But the room is a bit too
light and clean.
Regards
Stephen

I've spent a bit more time looking at it. The guy at the end; His left shoulder
doesn't look right. Turn him more face on and see how that looks. How about
having his eyes open but unfocused? By that I mean both looking straight ahead
and not toed in towards the camera.
The Woman on the far right: The outline of her breast is more the shape you get
in full gravity. The liquid would support it more. Using Vicky, less droop, less
lay down

You could also try putting a really bright light source outside. With
radiosity, a super-bright window shadow (is that the right word?) and dim
interior lighting would look really good.
Otherwise, texturing & modelling look great!

True without the guy at the end, the focus changes but I like the empty scene.
His gun seems to be too heavy to be holding in one hand and I would beef him up
a bit, more muscular thighs. Also I don't think men look good in tights :-) At
least not action men.
Regards
Stephen

This is a space station, gravity can be lower than usual.

But can inertia?
