David FNJ Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Location: A06 - Guinevere Tags: A06, MANTIS, Spying - Equipment: Spying Outfit I would like to buy the Spying Outfit for 500 credits - thanks! Double D's log 2: After a successful mission on Barnius, I was granted with a Spying Outfit and commissioned to head to the planet Guinevere. I ended up in the middle of nowhere in the blazing heat - but he was already used to that, and the new suit helped keep me cool. Finally, after hours of searching for life on the water-deprived planet, I came across a group of bird-like creatures nibbling on gel-like cactus plants that somehow acted as a source of water and other nutrients for the bird...things. Hey, my major is not in Biology. Unfortunately, some Kawashita drones were observing the birds too...but no matter, my new suit was equipped with one of those W.A.C.H. systems Massi had fumbled with a week earlier. The hack informed me that there were 2,000 drones like the ones here all across the planet. But these were....ehehm..."test" drones. Apparently Kawashita did not expect MANTIS to arrive a week early, so I easily decrypted their communication codes and transmitted some of my own to put them into a state of hibernation (no self-destruct mode unfortunately). Then I downloaded the drones' findings and mappings of the planet ;) ~ DD out AG: New Ground by David FNJ, on Flickr ------------------------------------- The cracked soil and the multi-colored rocks were quite fun to make! I didn't think masonry bricks would work that well with the stratified rocks. Edited June 15, 2015 by David FNJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dannylonglegs Posted June 16, 2015 Love that rock face, and I love that cracked earth. The rock face is particularly nice. I'm no geologist, but I know I've seen rock faces like that IRL. Great job! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
