Description
Got to play with Aliensprog's new Strange World mats and it gave me the opportunity to try another landscape. Well, a kind of landscape...this one is on another planet where they are harvesting a bacteria that grows in the soil. The bacteria can eat its way through garbage at an amazing rate so the demand for this species on other planets is more than than can safely be harvested at any faster rate.
I don't show off the mats to their best advantage because I used a lot of haze and fog and sky dome color which changed the look of some of the mats, but I liked the effect I got.
Thank you so much James.

Cool image....
Cool image! Your definitely a better artist than I!
well done!
This is sooo cool, love the concept (we could benefit from those bacteria for sure)! Excellent fx, just the right touch and excellent mats. My favorite part of this is where the mist from the thrussters on the bug is being moved, perfect! I am not sure why but I'm not getting your bots, hoped they had fixed that.
Superb art work ! Really "fantastico"
Excellent models and beuatiful atmosphere. Excellent concept. Congratulations !
The sense of atmospherics and otherworldlyness here is just perfect. Brings back my childhood love of the space opera. (BTW, in my texturscape I, I was about 4" away. That camera can get as close as about 3cm though.)
Nice Bryce work and a sense of something foreboding with that mountain in the background. Excellent render and SF scene!!!!
Awesome alien 'scape!
Nicely done!
