Description

The robotic systems (named "Sanctuary") were set to land in two locations on Mars. But Earth lost contact shortly before they were to land. 20 years later, a human crew has at last arrived. They primarily are to study Mars, but a crew was also sent to the main landing site to investigate if anything got there. They found the strange construction shown at: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1460504 So a flyer (part airplane, part dirigible) was sent to overfly the second landing site. This is the best picture it took of the massive construct it found there. So the mystery only deepens: What happened here? And what happened to the robotic mission?

Nice concept and mood ! Even, try to improve the texture frequency... Due to the apparent size of the martian soil texture, your contraption seems rather small ! You could also use a referent object to scale your main element. Keep on Brycing !
