Hi All,

This may be an unusual request. I am working on a personal Photoshop project, and I need images (either generic or familiar) from science fiction settings that are, in as much as possible, void of people or creatures. I'm looking for images of interiors and exteriors of space-ships, including a frontal view of a cockpit (this is the one I'm having the most difficulty locating) as well as fantastic outdoor landscapes and some sort of dungeon type locale. If anybody can help point me in the right direction, particularly if you know a link to some shiny cockpit pics, it would be much appreciated! Thanks!

What type of ships and what types of cockpits?

Star Wars good? Fighters or transports?

Might be able to pull up some models in cgi and render you some shots if so.

Wow! That would be amazing. I was only hoping for folks to point me to some links, but if you were to actually render something, that would be fantastic. But please - only do so if it is really no trouble.
As far as the type of ship - definitely more of a transport ship than a fighter. And Star Wars or Firefly style would be great. To give you an idea - if you can remember the shots from Star Wars (original trilogy), almost two dimensional in the way in which they were framed, in which you see characters at the helm of the Milennium Falcon looking almost directly into the camera as it is pointing directly at them, with the shot wide enough to feature all four characters - Han and Chewie at the controls and Luke and Obi Wan hovering behind---- well, something like that is what I'm hunting for. If that's easy to render, or if you've seen something like that on-line, that would be great!!!

THANK YOU!!!

I decided to help you out a bit but I can't spend much time or I will get too into it. Have you seen this link though:

All sorts of images from Babylon 5 including a Starfury being fired on, as seen from the cockpit; a docking bay from the inside; generic space-ships, jump-gates and even a space-station garden which looks very funky. Hope it helps

Have fun with whatever you are doing

extremely dimensionally transcendental

I did not manage to get anything done this weekend due to a visitor named Dennis. Luckily he made landfall far enough west that we only got tropical storm winds and a FREAKIN' LOT OF RAIN.

I'll see if I can do you some shots this evening. I know I should be able to knock out the Falcon, a b-wing, e-wing, t-wing, y-wing and x-wing as well as a TIE for you.

Thank you! Glad Dennis spared you. Were you without power at all? We had quite a bit of rianfall here (Atlanta) as well.

We only had 45 minutes of power outage. There are people down on the coast who won't have power for a week. That's still better than some of the horror stories from last year. Since it has really only been about 7 or 8 months since the last ones our trees are still pretty cleared out.

I put together a whole slew of Star Wars images for you. Give me an email and I'll shoot them out to you.
