Dragonfire Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Mission Log: Entry 1 ~ We landed successfully on one of Serium's many islands this morning. Leaving the crew with our pod, I set off to find the location of the beacon that we had dropped onto the planet's surface two days ago. Its analysis showed us that the atmosphere was non-toxic and we could land on solid ground. It's an extraordinary place- the islands are slanted, gradually sloping into the sea. The sandy beaches give way to grassy land, covered in strangely shaped plants and weeds. There is evidence of an alien civilisation milennia ago from the remnants of walls now sunken into the sand. Only one animal seen so far - a Slyri, a species of sea snake unique to Serium. The beacon is just in sight - I should reach it within the hour...

pombe Posted May 21, 2015 There's so much story packed in such a small build: the ancient ruins, the beacon, the beach, and the indigenous sea snake. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robuko Posted May 22, 2015 Nice scene Dragonfire. Have a think about using a plain smooth backdrop and how to get cleaner lighting and focus in your photos, the shadows are quiet strong here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Commander Beltar Posted May 22, 2015 Cool build for such a small area, the sea serpent is a cool little addition, and the water technique is a design I haven't seen in a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
