Here's an edit from Orbiter:


I tried to make it look like one of those videos you see on tv.

Cool, but I think the face plate should be black not gold.  I know they reflect that way sometimes, but here it looks fake.

Instead of just making it black, couldn't you make it black than put a slightly transparent light gold frost over it.  I'm not that famular with painting programs-but that way you would have a slight gold tint over a black background and it would look more real.

What if the sun were directly reflected off the visor?

Then the poor guy would be blind

Excellent edit, but the faceplate does not look real

There, does that look better?

Please don't be discouraged Daniel.

I really liked it with the astronaut in it (I like anything with astronauts-thats what I want to do).  But, I was just trying to make a suggestion-I hope that you didn't remove him because of something I said.
