Description
Bryce7.1Pro/DazStudio/Wings3D/Photoshop
Figure is Michael 3 Reduced Resolution with M3Scout outfit,SkyScout textures,M3 Shepherd headress and Cree rifle(all Daz3D and imported via DazStudio).Structure created in Wings3D,with Bryce preset and ProMaterials applied. Terrains textured in a customized Seriously Real Material,with custom Sand ripple bump applied. Blowing sand is a large sphere with a modified cloud volumetric material applied. Sky,light and atmo are custom...clouds created in the DTE,sky used as IBL. Planet is a sphere with a modified Bryce material applied. Postwork consisted of a slight levels adjustment,stars,signature and resizing. Thanks for viewing and any comments!

I like the design on the building, but the texture on the sand in the front + on the moon looks strange and realistic. Try fix it and you will have a better scene after my opinion:)

Excellent done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Superb work! The dust is paticularly good, giving the composition life and depth. Great lighting too.

Architecture is interesting and appropriately alien; I like the effect of wind erosion on the base of the structure, exposing the inner brick matrix beneath the outer weatherworn plaster surface. I think the sand-bump works and I will describe why with two examples: sand behaves differently dependent on gravity, the presence or lack of an atmosphere, ambient moisture, mineralogical composition, and, dependant on these factors, can bind or form crusts which can capture or freeze ripples caused by wind. Lunar dust and sand has particular properties due to the lack of atmosphere, solar heating, the radiation environment, and a near or complete anhydrous state. Sand on Mars has been observed in varied locations, from the Viking landing sites, (western Chryse Planitia – Viking 1, and Viking 2 at Utopia Planitia, respectively) to the north polar region of the Phoenix touchdown site, and the respective treks of the Spirit, Opportunity, and the Curiosity Mars Science Laboratory – and certainly the composition and characteristics of sand in each area varies according to ambient conditions and atmospheric conditions. It is hardly valid to suggest sand has a singular appearance or state that represents “realistic” – as spiritmind suggests. The moon looks to me like I would expect, light being distorted by atmospheric heating, inversion layers, and ambient dust. Overall a topnotch creation showing off a thoughtful approach to environment creation and innovative and unique modeling skills. 5+

Fantastic image. The spice must flow.

Excellent render!

A nice work... And about realistic sand... Im sure i have seen likewise photographs from desert regions here on earth... Could be in old books of Sven Hedins Expeditions in China...

I really like this. Watching of the shoulder for worms.

Very nice! I like that structure.

Excellent. Great sandy landscape and very cool building.

Well that sand bump sure started some interesting monologues. LOL I think that this is a great imagining of what the landscape on an alien planet might look like, regardless of the known understanding of the environmental affects of water, heat or any other influences. There, now I have said my piece as well, great render 5+

Awesome...great POV... Well done!!!!

A bit more sharpness and this could be a movie poster!!!

Wow. Great use of bryce. Bravo

Like the architecture in this one very much! Excellent lighting as well. The barrenness of the surroundings adds to the dramatic impact of of the building's design.
