Absolutely magnificent! I really like that strong and very stark lighting, exactly what you'd get in space, and as usual your model is superbly detailed and realistic. Wow!

Lovely positioning of the source of the light. I think the choice of lighting really makes the scene. Having fiddled around in Bryce myself, I sympathise with the effort involved in making a complex and detailed model, so I wish to add some quiet praise for your labour. I have always enjoyed in scenes such as these, being able to see into the control room. It gives a necessary level of scale to the model. Although we live in the age of space travel (and seemingly post said travel), we should never be blaise about the risk future space explorers face in their eternal quest to place humankind out among the stars. I have given this piece a score of '5' as I do not personally see room for improvement.

The more i see, the more i look, the more i look, the more i see! Totally in awe Bro, man this is just beyond a bolean nightmare!!! Truly masterful and so perfectly lit too, the astronaut gives such an awesome sense of scale, always when you post it makes me open Bryce again to get on modelling, simply awesome!

Excellent presentation, especially the lighting! The amount of detail work you put in--even on the inside of the bridge!--is amazing.

I like the exceptionally stark light and strong shadows here: that whole "hard vacuum" look that outer space does so well...at least in the interplanetary regions, where there's enough sunlight to make stuff look...well...stark. The details in this scene are fantastic and I love the manner in which you convey a superb sense of realism while also revealing the stark beauty of what's out there. The ship is the showcase here, and she's a beauty. All-in-all, this is a superb piece of work: I like the whole "hardware" focus that seems to imply more than a little bit about the users of that hardware: after all, what good is an interplanetary vessel if there's nobody to use it? Though the focus is on the ship itself and the stark, lonely, chill of interplanetary travel, there's an overriding human element I can get just from looking at this: including actual "people" in the image helps, but also the whole "mood" of the piece is quite stirring. This is the kind of image that makes me wonder who lives and works on board that ship. What are their personal stories, and what does Mars or any other world mean to them? Yeah, questions can go on and on, forever, and it's not really the responsibility of this piece of work to answer them, but the fact that it's generated those questions in my mind is a testament to the fact that this is just flat-out good. Oh, and in case I didn't say: I like this a lot.

Gorgeous :)

Definitely looks like it is somewhere "out there" between Earth and Mars. Exceptionally realistic lighting.
