shmails Posted June 14, 2015 ----------- Start Log ---------- Looks like the initial assessment of this planet was spot on. I landed on H03 in a valley with little vegetation and almost no sign of life. As I moved towards the hills, I ran across a small stream and followed it up towards the source. Along the way I found a huge deposit of awesomnium in the rock face. Time to get to work! I set up a base camp, sent the mechanical miners and explorobots into the area, and we started to mine. Hard at work, extracting the minerals from the rocks. Will try to communicate again later, but the exhaustion of the work may be too much for me. I may have to stay a few extra days to get all the awesomnium extracted for analysis. ----------- End Log ---------- More, larger pictures can be found here: https://www.flickr.c...157654142438459 Continuing the exciting journey of Jacques LaRose through the Andromeda's Gates RPG.

kabel Posted June 14, 2015 Haha, this is really funny. Interesting how the corporation can afford to have so many of its employees being idle on H 03. Interesting take on the landscape, really like how you included the awesomnium in the rock! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soccerkid6 Posted June 14, 2015 Working hard, or hardly working... Another superb landscape, the studs up rockwork is very effective here, particularly with the addition of awesomnium Love the worker bots too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shmails Posted June 14, 2015 Thanks so much everyone! I am pretty sure that Jacques was this kind of worker before the promotion, but now it just feels more justified! More fun to come! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LittleJohn Posted June 14, 2015 Fantastic scene, shmails! The rockwork and twisting stream are superb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Sal Posted June 14, 2015 Wow, just wow! Amazing landscape - all the better to show off all the incredible details! As for the robots: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackhawk STX Posted June 14, 2015 Now that's pretty impressive! Getting droids to work like that takes talent! I feel like I'm out of my depths here. The only way I can keep droids working is by kicking them in the keester every five minutes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodan Black Posted June 14, 2015 A lot of great humor in the build. The magnifying glass droids are my favorite! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zepher Posted June 15, 2015 Beautiful, hilarious build, but I think the robots are what really sell it. They're hilarious looking, and extremely well articulated - great personality to them. The one in the bottom right, instruction the "drilling" variety robot where to drill, is my absolute favorite, the way he's looking at the robot and pointing to the spot as if the other robot just isn't getting it. The rock work and coloring is nice too - I must commend you for making each planet feel different so far, which I think is a real asset to this game and to the creativity of each of your builds - changing your color palette seems to force you to try something new, and it's looked great so far!

Zaael Posted June 15, 2015 Wow Shmails! Awesome build. Nice droids! I tied my story to your build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shmails Posted June 15, 2015 Thanks again everyone! I am having loads of fun with these builds, so I am glad y'all are as well. @Zepher - That is my favorite part of the build as well, those two have a Lenny and Squiggy feel to me (see Laverne and Shirley for those who do not get the reference). I really appreciate your kind words, I am trying to push myself in this game, glad you like the results so far. More fun to come! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
