NAUTILUS IMAGES
Here you will find graphic
representations of the NAUTILUS: Computer Generated Images, paintings, etc.
Fred S. Kuentz of ARTIMATION.COM did those excellent CGI
Nautilus renderings we all enjoyed in the recent Disney 20,000 LEAGUES
Special Edition DVD. Here’s an example
of his outstanding work. Stand by for
more to follow! Meanwhile, you can

(Over
the years I’ve forgotten where I obtained some of these images; if anyone can identify
the artist, I’d appreciate it.)

Here’s the mesh drawing for Simon Meacock’s NAUTILUS IN THE
DEEP, shown above. This gives a good
look at how such art is created. Bloody
complex if you ask me! (In the squares
the mesh’s filled in with surface tones.)

Nautilus

I don’t think this was intended to be an image of the
NAUTILUS, but it’s such a great rendering of a cool looking Victorian submarine,
I thought I’d include it here anyway.
Can anyone identify the artist for me?
I’d like to credit him for his work.
OK, this really isn’t a graphic image or painting. It’s that great scene of the NAUTILUS
rushing in to attack the US Navy ship ABRAHAM LINCOLN. One of my favorite images of this sub.

As many of you know, Andrew Probert is the artist who produced
the cover painting for the 1984 CINEFANTASTIQUE magazine that carried Harry
Hathorne’s article on The Making of 20,000 Leagues. I had a picture posted here; Andy saw it and
sent me this one: better quality. It’s
a great painting: one that has become famous amongst Leaguers everywhere. But check what’s below…..
This is LEGEND FOUND: a new work by Andrew Probert,
depicting a moment in the future when modern day aquanauts in a minisub
discover the long-lost NAUTILUS. Both
the NAUTILUS and LEGEND paintings are available as prints through Andy’s
website, (I bought one of each, of course) which you can access via our LINKS
page. Mr. Probert is an amazingly
talented artist who has worked on many science fiction projects for TV, movies,
and periodicals; check out his site and see what I mean. Great work, Andy!
This is
called KING OF THE SEAS by Delic Designs in Germany.
Another
nice NAUTILUS image from our friends at Malerwerkst in Germany.
Another from
the Malerwerkst website. I really like
the 3-D aspect of this image.
DANGEROUS
PASSAGE from the NIGHTPROWLER website in Germany.
NAUTILUS
THROUGH THE CAVERNS by 3D Café.
I got this picture years ago from Wayne Orlicki and meant to
post it here but it got misplaced.
Obviously it’s an underwater view of the NAUTILUS tearing through the
keel of a ship. “What’s so special
about that?” The way the picture was
achieved, and how well it turned out. The image you’re looking at is actually
upside down. Wayne created the texture
of the ocean’s surface as viewed from below through the clever use of wrinkled
aluminum foil. The sub and ship are
models. All the white foam is actually
cotton. Get the lighting just right,
take a picture, invert it, and voila!
A visual representation so believable that when I don’t tell people how
it was done, many assume it’s a cut scene from the movie. Nice job, Wayne.
Here’s a computer generated image from Bob Jenson of the giant
squid attacking the NAUTILUS in deep water.
Bob says the sub was done in Bryce and the squid in Amorphium. I guess you computer artists out there will
understand those are the names of the programs Bob used. All I know is it looks good! Keep up the good work, Bob.
And here we have yet another CG image from the very talented
(and apparently prolific) Bob Jenson.
He calls this one ARCTIC.
Obviously, it’s the NAUTILUS On Ice.
Very nice! Don’t stop now, Bob,
you’re on a roll! J
Here’s one from Steve Johnson, also known as “SciFi
Steve.” The NAUTILUS at the North Pole
seems to be a favorite subject of late!
J As you can see, Steve is a very talented CGI
artist. He has a website entitled 50’S
SCI FI MEMORIES, where you can not only find more images from 20,000 Leagues,
but also favorites like Conquest of Space, Commando Cody, and many more. Steve’s URL is http://www.scifisteve.com/ You can also access his site via our LINKS
page. Great stuff, Steve! Looking forward to seeing more!
NEW! Above and below are “Day / Night”versions of the same image sent to us by Eric Camden. Very nice!
