Zeus Throne, the most expensive Olympus ship, The King of Olympus, more like the king of Blandness. Well not anymore, I have redesigned the Zeus Throne and Included a Glow for it! Textures and ingame screenshots included below.

You know the drill, anything wrong with this texture at all, please tell me so I can change it / fix it :)

A big Thank you to Dominator for letting me test the textures on your Zeus Throne, much appreciated :)

Enjoy!

It seems all anyone is doing with glows is a single solid color with bad aliasing and all the way up on brightness. Doesn't look good, just looks like a bar of unimaginative light.

Thing is, I used Sepia on that glow which if anything, kills brightness, I did not use any brightness what so ever on the glow. The Poseidon Wave glow (which I did also) is not bright what so ever, Star Sonata makes them bright, I made this glow in particular Dark and bronze-ish so it would look like proper lightning bolts.

What would you like to see though? I only did what people wanted me to do, make the Zeus Throne look less bland and boring.

I'm with Feathers honestly. Sure, you won't have many people disagree with adding a glowmap where there wasn't one, but it's really uniform and bland. No gradient whatsoever in the variation of the glow is what he's trying to get at, as well as the glow doesn't follow the contour of the ship. I'll work on a glowmap either today or tomorrow as an example and kind of show you what i'm talking about at least.

I look forward to seeing your ZT design!

While I like the texture slightly better than the regular ZT, the glow map is utter shit... Makes it look super crappy overall.
