Description
Incoming Report from Deep Space Explorer 37:
"....on the sixth planet off an uncharted star near the orion nebula we dicovered strange glowing shapes on the night side. A launched probe yielded very surprising data. The strange glow is generated by billions of insectlike beings of about 60cm length.
It is already very intriguing that all of those colonies look very similar, but the most striking fact is that their shape is very similar
to the shape of their heads. See Picture above, taken during descent of first scout ship from 28km height. Maybe an intelligent lifeform...
...we have been here for two weeks now, trying to find a way of communication, but so far without success. We are sure that they are aware of our presence, but that is all we can tell for sure. We found out that they feed on the Rocks using some strong acid.
In the area near the colonies we detected varios kinds of predatory creatures, which seem to prey on the glowing ones. Two of the species can be dangerous to humans, as we found out. We lost two scientist two days ago, who where attacked by the predators..."
My comments:
IDEA: Well, this is part V of Alien Artifacts. ;)
TERRAIN: Terrain created with TF2 and Photoshop and combined in TF2
THANKS: Many many thanks to all of you for your kind comments on my last post "AA4 - The Citadel". I was totaly overwhelmed by your reactions.
And seeing it in the Hot 20 was kind of a little shock ;o) Many thanks again and have a great day!
I hope you like this one. Comments, critics and/or advise is (as always ;) very welcome.
Thanks for viewing and Happy Rendering :o)

Ein bisschen verwirrend. Aber das Terrain sieht toll aus und die glenden Insektenfelder passen gut hinein. Xlnt!

I love the story, sounds great. And the scene looks good too, although if the camera would be angled to see a bit of the sky, then we could sense the scale better. Excellent job again.
