Description
Evidence indicates that modern humans (Homo sapiens) originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago, also it has been estimated that the human "lineage" diverged from that of chimpanzees (our closest living relative) about five million years ago, and from that of gorillas about eight million years ago.
However, a hominid skull discovered in Chad in 2001,is approximately seven million years old, which may indicate an earlier divergence. But what about 50-100 millions years ago o maybe more?!....well......we have no evidence!.....so, I enjoyed myself thinking in different way..... maybe I'm gone too far!.
Here the scenario : planet Earth 200 millions years ago, lat. 36.3 N - long.112.8 W more o less at the actual Grand Canyon area. One big guy looks warlike but it's only the remains of what he was.......beside two more guys are looking at him with admiration and timorous respect....the same respect you have for your God. But....wait a moment, one is a human being and the other is a gorilla and he seems to be more than Sapiens!, this is not possible 200 millions years ago!, and who is this big
guy?...an alien? or he is part of our ancestors?.. in the meantime on the right side a meteoroid hit the ground.....maybe it is a warning?.......something big has to come? or this meteor is the carrier of something else?.... virus?....intelligence?....o what?!....and the dinosaurs....where they are?....naaah!...without a properly atmosphere......uhmm!...I think for today it's enough....now I'm a bit confused,
so please, give me a break! and find the answers
yourself!.
This time I used mojoworld for landscaping, from poser I have imported the models and rendered all togheter..... sign, framing and postwork in photoshop CS3. The fantastic alien cannon was originally created by Sean Kennedy (aka Treybor), the two character are Larva/HAIPS M3 from Xurge3D and Silverback Gorilla from Legolas, finally the small temple is from DM.
Enjoy!

You've got me guessing how old the silverback is? Cool and unusual render, such a odd looking contraption but it makes for some pretty interesting artwork. Cool Fx too, and well worth the full size viewing!!

Fantastic work, Clam. Love your very special and original SF style. This is an amazing composition and render. And a very cool storyboard too. Love the monkey with the helmet.. very cool touch. Darwin had this in mind too i believe.:) Man is descended from a hairy, tailed quadruped, probably arboreal in its habits....Charles Darwin. Masterly acomplished work here.+5

Discussing the origin of our species is a subject that fascinates me and you've illustrated it with a most beautiful and achieved composition. Excellent and skillful work!

Ahhh I've pondered those same things myself many times....personally, I think it was alien intervention that gave us a kick start....and speaking of aliens, the canon creature looks a lot like one of the ones from the movie "Alien" :o) Excellent work here ~
