I'm on a major Pegasus workflow at the moment! Here's two videos to show off current progress; one is a five second looped flyover of Pegasus as it stands at the moment. The other is an animatic of the Pegasus opening sequence.
Enjoy!

Pegasus: Up Close
Hello!
Here's a test render of Pegasus in Cycles and the new textures, lit with just the emitting objects in the scene. Next step is to start work on the Pegasus interior, keeping it close to what was seen in JMP as opposed to PP.

TSA Hallway
Hello :)
Here's an updated shot of the TSA entry hallway looking back at the main door. I've been putting a lot of work into the rock texture, trying to give it a surface without making it look too jagged or rough.
Enjoy!

Pegasus: Cycles Overview
Evening all!
Here's an overview shot of Pegasus taken from near the back wall. Work still in progress although I've got a lot done to the textures of the tubes this evening; metalwork is coming together nicely.

Pegasus Texturing
Good evening!
Just a quick post before heading for bed...burning the candle at both ends here. Might have to find a modern-day equivalent for that phrase...burning the...erm...bulb at both ends?
Yeah still needs some work. As does Pegasus! But more progress has been made - check out the shots below. Enjoy!

TSA Scanner Hallway: Texture Work
Good morning all!
Here's some shots of the work going on in the scanner hallway. A huge rework for the rock texture and a render showing the supports etc without the main scanner rings.
I hope you like them!

Pegasus: Cycles Texture Work
Hello!
Title is self explanatory for this one; reworking Pegasus for the Cycles render engine and getting into some photo mapping for textures and bump maps. Still early days but great progress being made thanks to this fantastic renderer! Enjoy!!

Scanner: Phone Wallpaper
Hi,
Just a quick note; I rendered out a phone wallpaper (res 720x1280) - feel free to download and enjoy!

Scanners: Cycles Rework
Good morning all :)
I've been doing a fair bit of experimentation using Cycles, the new Blender render engine. It allows for a far faster workflow as you can see in real-time how the environment and materials are looking.
With this in mind, here's a work-in-progress rework of the TSA Scanners. Enjoy!

Project Update
Hello all!
Just a quick update. I've had to take some time out from the project recently due to personal reasons. However, I am keen to get back into it and the rest of the team have been doing some fantastic work behind the scenes so watch this space!
All for now,

Mars Gantry Walk Anim - first version on Renderfarm!
Hello all!
The first video is now in the queue on Renderfarm.fi, session number 9715. Let's render as much as we can to get the queue down so that this session can render :)
Also, a huge shout out to the active members of the renderfarm.fi team; smp55, BryanS, will1701a, tecssil, jrod5 and Wongfive who have helped render sessions so far! Keep it going :)

Mars: Train Building - first 30 minutes
Hello!
Here's the Morimoto train after 30 minutes of modelling. Very low detail at the moment, but it should give you some idea of how it's progressing :)

Morimoto Gantry Update
Hello all!
Here's the latest intel from the Morimoto Mars Colony...construction is going well on the gantry, and the site manager promises to begin construction on the transport station very soon, once they can begin moving materials across the gantry.
In the meantime, he's sent us this lovely shot this morning. Can't see many workers out there though; must be enjoying the Martian sunrise!!
Enjoy :)

Progress Update - Monday 18th June 2012
Hey hey :)
Some fantastic progress has been made over the last few days. I won't go into a huge amount of detail, but the first pass of a couple of the environments has been started and the first very basic tests been loaded into the Aware engine.
These tests are looking at a) the current status of the engine and b) the current quality of the environments, specifically highlighting issues with modelling/texturing/compositing/game implementation. Issues are being identified and fixes being put in place to prevent future crop-ups of the same issue. While this will take a lot of time at this stage, I believe that it is critically important to get this right now rather than have to come back and fix a swathe of issues that could have been avoided.
Work is, as ever, in progress; I would like to say thanks to you all for sticking with myself and the team so far. It has been a rollercoaster since I started the project almost 14 months ago and I'm loving every minute.
Also (and not for the last time), a massive thanks to Presto Studios for their vision back in the early 90s. Without them I wouldn't be working on this project, and without their blessing I wouldn't have the heart to do it.
Long live Journeyman.

Equirectangular Mars Gantry
Hello!
Another stage in the development testing - this image was output as six cube faces then stitched into an equirectangular output. I thought I'd share it - gives an interesting perspective on Mars :)

VR Test Shots
Hello!
Six shots below comprise the first part of the VR test using Adam's Aware Engine. I'm very excited; we had our first tech demo the other day which went very well indeed, so I'm eager to see how the rendered shots will look in the engine!
I thought I'd share the shots - enjoy :)
