  • Human astronauts cross a lifeless, barren Martian landscape when they suddenly discover an alien statue, hidden in the mountain range with unexpected life growing in the direct vicinity... kick starting... life on Mars.

    Mars is in reach of humans now, what other planet do you think we should try and visit next?

    Somehow, using words like "incredible," "fantastic," or even "awesome" to describe this diorama all fall short. The best I can do is to say that this is probably the most imaginative, well-executed diorama that I've seen anywhere in months!
    I especially like the statue; kind of a Cyberpunk take on Akhenaten. I also like the body-language of the astronauts that suggests shock and awe at their discovery. I get the idea that they were so distracted by the statue, they have yet to notice the flora.

    The diorama looks really good. It's just a lot of red tones throughout. The statue really pops out as the focal point. The astronauts blend in to the base. Not sure if that was an accident or planned. Great concept and work on it.

    • @ScaleModelGeek
      @ScaleModelGeek  3 місяці тому

      I agree about a lot of red but I really wanted the alien statue to 'pop' out of the landscape as it show it doesn't belong there. I think the red on the space suits counteracted the yellow and made the astronauts blend in a bit more than I had hoped. Thanks for watching

      The reason for my idea is that I've seen others create glassy effects like that, with thick clear coats or even resin. I'm sure you've seen that too.
      If you're using a specific medium to achieve that effect, it makes sense that you can't apply some other technique to "save" the situation if it doesn't work.
      (I'm not trying to explain this to you, since you obviously are the one with experience here. I'm mostly trying to explain it to myself, and I'm leaving it in for the benefit of anyone else with the same question.)
