Description

The new plasma fusion atmospheric heat shields were meant to make planetary exploration easier, til it was tested outside a lab under real conditions... Think I'll do my space travel from the armchair thanks ! Cheers jif3d :o)

Nicely done. I love the ships and the detail on his uniform. Unfortunately, the position of his body is lost (cluttered up, if you will) by the placement of the spaceship behind him. If the silver ship were gone and there were a little more light (reflecting off the surface of the planet, perhaps?) this image would have a stunning impact. As it is, it's still very good and I definitely get a sense of space and silence from it. Well done.

Very cool concept and well executed. I agree with mmitchell_houston. That second ship is superfluous and without it there might be a little stronger sense of isolation for the test subject. I'd still give it a 5 'cause the render is just so awesome.

Space Travel isn't all what it's cracked up to up to be, a bit like the story of 'Humpty-Dumpty' ... that is one big spaceship, with another floating bit - which broke off accidentally - so where is the plasma that really works, when you need it ? hmmm, I don't agree with 'mmitchell_houston' - the Universive is definitely dark and not many light refractions in that void ! MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU ;)) BB
