Cephas hides out amongst the cogs of machinery, where local pirates, mad scientists, and Reavers have difficulty detecting her equipment. One day she hopes to unlock the secrets Malagarr's surviving crustaceans have in withstanding the planet's radiation so that she can heal so many victims across the galaxy.

Ross Fisher Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 That train track piece works well, here. I love yhe crab greeble, too. Good work! Quote
dvogon Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Great radioactive setup! The red rocks fit perfect in such a hostile environment. The details are top notch, specially the almost hidden red crab! Quote
BEAVeR Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 I knew somebody else must think of those hardhat pieces as robot eyes ! But I don't think anybody but you would look at those flex track pieces and see a decorative element! Really a stroke of brilliance to use them to get the most out of a cramped area. I love the fact that you don't use it as just another mechanical detail, but as something that really tells part of the story. Reading about this meltdown and radiation I immediately visualized things melting and bending, and that part with all of those curved features that look like they once were straight is perfect for that! Add to that the color palette, and I can really see the heat coming from your creation. Maybe a cool thought would be to also add some transparent pieces or darker pieces to suggest parts of the surroundings that are damp by steam or something like that (and would be a nice link to how those crustaceans might survive...)? Anyway, thanks for the great scene and for putting the flex track pieces in the 'to be used ina future MOC' category in my head! Quote
