Description
Sentinent warships of the Kar'shilla cruise in patrol through a small floating island. On this water world, there are no solid land masses. Rather, the dominant life forms cluster on floating continents of living vegetation, some of
which are a hundred miles wide.
Given the slow advance of intelligent life on a water world, and the dificulty in precuring the heavier elements, this civilization has slowing developed over millions of years. Though not much more advanced then 30th century earth, their floating cities have existed longer then the entire era of mans modern evolution from ape.
In a few 10's of thousands of years, mankind will come in contact with this race. Until then, they remain alone and unaware of any life beyond their homeworld.

All Xfrog modelling, compiled of course in Bryce 5. Played with the 360 panoramic option, then noticed that if i bend the camera down the water warps up and around, just needed to increase the camera higher and higher as i angled lower and lower.
A fast one, even with excessive settings, only 5 hours to render. Time to make a simple one or 2, those cyborg ones give me a headache in the end. At least here its the picture that bends to make way for the semi random shape, not trying to force the shape to conform to a model which makes my head hurt haha.

An opus of a picture, must have taken forever in all aspects. I could stare at this for a long time just discovering little things about it.

Excellent composition, POV and lightings. Colors reminds Me painting by Jim Burns - very soft ans in the same time saturated. One of best Bryce image, must say :)

Very imaginative and beautiful use of Bryce and that tiresome Xfrog; the 360 render was a terrific idea! One of the best Bryces I've seen in ages!
