Nod train interior (Unused art for TS)

Pepzi

Did anyone know about this piece? Looks interesting, because generally there aren't many pictures of Nod transport interiors, except for the Montauk I suppose.

Interesting, haven't seen it before; a lovely piece, I really like it, specially the hexagonal shape of the train, which gave initially the impression that it's shape was inspired in Nod's logo, though after seeing it again, it seems that's just a regular hexagonal shape Laughing

also that case rocks.

Wasnt there a shot of the inside of the train during the bonus GDI mission(I think it was firestorm).

There isn't really any resemblence here -
EDIT: On second thought, I don't think this is a live set, after watching the clip through

Also it probably wouldn't be posted on Deviant art, and the artist's profile doesn't exactly look like Eric Gooc's #Tongue

Myth busted?

Who's that junkie? Laughing

Anyway, I thought the rendering fit very nicely to what we saw in the TS trailer, with several 3D rendered scenes.

Team Black,
It is said that this is "unused" artwork for TS, so that doesn't disqualify it from being artwork for TS.
And looking at it, it style to me resembles a lot of work from that time, including TS.
Also, not every set in TS was a live set, and I have to say, looking at the background, that set looks relatively rendered to me..

Aye, I think you're right about the it being a 3D set, on a second look..

but 'alfachamp' is certainly not Eric Gooch, and he's the only person who did 3D art for TS (well, AFAIK)

And if this Alphachamp did do any work for TS, I would've expected for it to be leaked a little sooner than 8 years after TS's release, and likely not on a site like deviant art..

Maybe someone who's part of deviant art should ask him

There was more than Goochy working on 3D stuff in TS #Tongue

"Evil Gary" and David Potter are just two, and they're linked from Gooch's gallery.

I'm sure you'd see more people mentioned in the manual.

Eric Gooch only released the pictures of his work a few years ago, when he was approached by someone in the community, which resulted in him then digging up his old work.
A lot of that stuff would be still unseen if he hadn't have had that request to show them.

So it is entirely plausible that this could be another TS artist.
Trying to show off some work on a gallery website, which he did years ago just to get it seen, especially with the attention of the recent command and conquer sequel, is not the stupidest thing in the world?

I wouldn't discredit it before its been proved or disproved.
