HOMEAWAY

Hey...

Hope its OK to drop my latest learning render effort into this space here...

Whilst in this Moonbase Girl (Sci-Fi) theme, I'm experimenting trying to build an environment where our Cult Sci-Fi heroine Lt Ellis and her equally decisive compadres can roam and hopefully kick some dastardly alien butt... 

Yesterday I started playing with some alien landscape surfaces, sprayed in a starscape, placed some items plus V4 here and there, and got to practising with half a dozen or so spots... 

I was trying to arrive at a point/render/finish where the marooned heroine appeared to be in the vacume (vacuum) of space with no air around her and a long way from home...

It took an hour of selected area rendering alone to arrive at the desired single spot lighting position for the visor, which for me is the drawpoint of the image... ...I know the left arm is virtually invisible (as my other half kept telling me) in the render... But each time I vaguely lit the arm, the total effect of the character being in a distant and desolate vacume or vacuume, was lost - oddly enough. 

No post work involved

Total work and render time 4-hours...

Hope you like just a bit my rendering beginnings...

Please scrutinize at will...
