Some of you may recall the forum thread a few weeks back where community member freelance began to post high quality renders of the models in the game. Well, he's taken that experience a step forward, and graciously assembled a series of desktop backgrounds featuring the heroes of Universe at War. The full complement is here, in both regular and spectacular widescreen format.

In the name of the Gods ships shall be built to carry our warriors out amongst the stars, and we will spread Origin to all the Unbelievers! The power of the Ori will be felt far and wide, and the wicked shall be vanquished.
Hallowed are the Ori.
Hallowed are the Ori.

Thanks Driph for hosting them 
. I really appreciate petroglyph's support to the community.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm glad you like them guys.
At first I made the ground with a dark red/orange color (Hierarchy scheme), but to me it seemed to make the image uncomfortable to the eyes and monotone. I found the blue more appealing and gave some nice contrast. But as always, to each his own.

Nicely done mate 
Not sure if I will use them becouse I like to have a "clean" background (As in, nothing spesific as a character or anything like that)
But I love what you've done no less

Thank you Petroglyph for being here in the dark ages of RTS gaming! May your bright torch lead the way for other developers led astray. You make me happy as long as you stay alive, and I will dedicate my life to thee to make this dream come true!

It's not a table, he is using a spotlight for lighting the model. Very nice rendering.
