Cyberspace » Wallpaper WIP

Started working on a Binaerpilot wallpaper after I heard the music. Still in progress, just trying to figure where to go from here at the moment. But for now here's the Binaerpilot logo 3d-ified:

Awesome.

@ Kurinto: now add some white-blue glowing textures to the letters and some FOV filters :)
It feels so Death Star-ish! I want this to be bigger and I want it NOW.
This needs to be floating around in space somewhere.
this is awesomeness.

This is very sexy. To be honest it doesn't need to go much further than different angles and higher resolution.
What other people say:

Posted By: rachaelivyOur awesome new wallpaper. Kurinto made it for us yesterday and shit has been pretty crazy since then.
But can it match the power of the dark side? That was epic.

ffs koew when will this madness end?!!
'till Norland is released, of course! (By torturing forum users, Binär will be affected and forced to publish small teaser tracks to calm the crowds!)

Thanks for all the comments! :D
Sorry I couldn't post back until now. I've been on vacation visiting relatives and just got back late last night.
Here's another render to look at though:

1920x1080 Fullsize: http://www.zshare.net/image/739664076c125d54/ (Takes 50 seconds to appear)

I'll probably make some other versions, so suggestions are welcome. :)

Everyone will love me eventually. As soon as I get hold of their minds!!!


Oh, Needz a retro green version :3
Mkay, here are two different color renders. Red and green:

Next I was thinking of making another one with completely different backgrounds, materials, etc.

What the heck, that zShare bitch won't give me the files .___.

i feel like someone should make a spaceship out of the first version, and import it to audiosurf so i can see pure awesomeness everytime i play it.

(Hope that makes sense.)
The last few posts were for Kurinto. In before the "wat".

Here's the bottom-to-top angle.

Sorry, I didn't get home until late, and 3ds Max takes a while to render. Especially ambient occlusion passes. But I'll get the front angle done soon enough. :)

Thank you! The first one, could you make the perspective about half that? It was a little too much when I see it in front of me. Sorry in advance if I'm being a pain the ass.
On a serious note, Binär: Please decide what logo you're going to use. I'm one for nostalgia, so I still love the 8-bit skull (old t-shirt one). Right now it feels like you're undecided like a 16-year old girl who don't know whether she likes Bob or Bill.

But Bill is such a nice boy. Great hair too!
And there he goes again... The Kurinto graphic is the original type 3d-fied, I thought you'd be happy!

Let's hash this out once and for all. The robot-icon, don't think I haven't sketched on a bigger one for months. But I'm not happy with it. Bottom line: I don't have a symbol for Binärpilot right now, and unless somebody makes something really cool that's not going to change anytime soon. (The red circle A didn't have any staying power with me, so that's gone.)

If however you're not thinking about the symbol: The "logo" is going to change on every album, that makes sense to me since different artists do them. As for the site, I doubt that it will ever stick as the design changes, but I like the idea of keeping the Battlestar typography.

Discuss.
I agree on the Battlestar typography. But to have a logo (favicon too) that stays the same would be better for branding/recognition.

The red circle A didn't give me anything Binärpilot-wise. It felt new and refreshing, but so did the whole design. I love this design.
Or I could use one of the symbols that Are made? Discuss.
Change the icon and logotype to match the most recent album.
Also, it's not a logo unless it's being used consistently across the board.

</design nerd>
That's not happening.

Thinking about how I could 'help'. Will post concepts after schools over (next weekend).
2 months later…
I'm making an attempt to transform these into themes for Firefox (and maybe Google Chrome, if I can.) Could I get a large copy of the favicon please? Anywhere up to 200 px would be nice, thanks.

Oh, and if I could see the old logo maybe?
Edited Jan 20, 2011
I'll post some resource files for you when I come home. The favicon can be lifted from the Nordland album art (PSD files are included in the torrent). You can also use those for art as long as you credit Are Kleivan and this site (obviously).
