4th in the series, not finished. few things to polish and haven't decided what to put on the sign. suggestions appreciated. all stock mine this time.

updated version:
this is finished, i think.. completely replaced "sorry no" and lit. added message to sign and ladders to rockets. polished up the edges of my extractions and shadows and added a texture.

Me likes!
I'm not goth but i like dark colors and so on.

I just don't get what is with rockets? For my unprofesional eye they fall off from concept (or how it call? idea/feeling).

the whole series has rockets in it (the series is for a bathroom remodel - cowboy/space theme like firefly). so i was going for a motel thing here. i plan on adding portholes and ladders later when i find the right ladder stock.

Cool! How about the sign just saying something like " NO VACANCY", like that the Earth is over crowded ?

thanks. definitely have to light up the 'sorry, no' words above the vacancy. i had to light the silver saddle motel words so it would make sense to match the no vacancy sign.

for the message i'm thinking of two options:
1 - do not light warp drive
or
2- reactor coils located under bed

Could you not spce the rockets out a bit more and add some perspective to them its just they seem to get bigger the further back they are. Maybe put 1 in the background surrounded in smoke and flames as if it has crash landed but only as a subtle reference and not to dominate the whole image

not exactly what i'm after hoogle. none of the rockets have taken off, so they couldn't have crashed yet. granted i did work an incident a few years back where a helicopter crashed before it left the ground yet, but i hope that the fictional rocketmen aren't that special...

It is Just I saw a similar image I believe it was in a restaurant but more alien invasion and it worked really well but then I guess something new and fresh is always better

this is finally finished, i think.. ok, so maybe not, but i'm sick of working on it and being interrupted with rl work. it's state fair week so we're getting slammed with emergency incidents and personnel checks, even on the midnight shift. completely replaced "sorry no" and lit. added message to sign and ladders to rockets. polished up the edges of my extractions and shadows and added a texture. all stock photos still mine, used fonts on the "sorry, no," the message board sign and brush for the ladders.
