Description
In the eternal quest for exploitable natural resources, Haliburton's New Frontier Group (NFG) sends out unmanned probes to countless planets throughout the known universe. Once the data is returned and analyzed, an NFG ground team is dispatched to the locations with the highest potential yield. Consisting of scientists, geologists and a cadre of other specialists, these teams conduct in-depth research and analysis on the various sites leaving no stone unturned. If a site is proven viable, the team will remain on the ground and assist in the initial development of extraction and manufacturing facilities before being dispatched to the next location.
This one started out as just a swampy landscape in Vue, but after seeing Thinker2001uk's H.E.R.V.1 vehicle, the little synopsis above kind of came together. Thanks for looking!

Le rendu est sympa, on a l'impression d'une case de BD mélanger avec un image de film d'animation :) Superbe.

Looks like the locals might have something else in mind for them... Gorgeous scene and write up, there's nothing like the grandeur and majesty of nature being cut by man made mischief.

If we manage to survive long enough to get to the stars, we can be sure that we'll repeat the mistakes elsewhere!! Serene and atmospheric, but perhaps a little too dark on my monitor.

Something is missing here... it needs lots of bugs flying around. It feels as if those shafts of light are a bit too sharp and crisp. Other than that... another brilliant piece of sci-fi art here.

thecytron
Xcellent render!
chrispoole
A fine atmospheric and creative render, and a wonderful sci-fi scene Jacob. Hope you don't mind if I say it lacks the depth of your others, a little 2D IMHO.
