Needed: background image for campaign victory message

<< < (2/3) > >>

kracken:
When this picture will be displayed, a text will also be printed to say that game is over.

Maybe that would be nice to keep some room on the picture to write this text? (a dark zone)

Psawhn:
The top one isn't really for the campaign victory screen. I just thought it was funny to do while I was setting it up. :)

Here's something which probably looks good. (I don't know anymore - when you stare at these things long enough you forget how to judge them. ;)) Opinions?

I think these look nice, except that there are no stars, sun, etc.  Then again, I wouldn't know if they are supposed to be visible or not at that altitude due to the atmosphere, not being a physical science major.

EDIT: Also, I think Kracken is right about room for the text, unless the text scrolls or appears somehow across the entire screen on top of the whole graphic, which would look kinda cool, although the font would have to have a small outline/border to make it more readable.

Psawhn:
The sun is simple in a different direction. ;) If it were visible in the shot, then we would be seeing the shaded side of the ships.

It's not the atmosphere that blocks the stars, but the fact that the Earth and ships are just too bright and obscure the stars. In fact, in real life even photos taken by Cassini of Saturn and its moons have too little exposure to see stars (except when the photograph is overexposed).
We're just used to seeing stars in every space-themed piece of artwork we see. ;) (That, and artistically it's boring to have nothing but black as the background.)

Edit: Slight tweaking. I think it's nearing completion.
As far as text goes - the bottom left corner is very light, and there's nothing but black in the top right.

the problem is that it doesn't really fit to the lose-picture - maybe blur the interceptors or something like that - a little bit darker might work, too
