Description
Alexander Preuss has created a wonderful tubeworld which can be seen at the CG Society site. His interpretation is truly breathtaking and was the inspiration for this humble submission, along with Larry Niven’s memorable Ringworld.
As usual, all models are original and were created in either Bryce5 or Wings3d. Post work in PSP8. Thanks for lookin’!

Very Very interesting piece of art ! love those highrises and connecting bridge. Well Done ! 5+++++
Excellent work. This would make a great animated sequence, flying along the cityscape.
Fantastic. Impresive image.
Brilliant and an outstanding piece of Bryce rendering.
I've tried many times to do a 'Ringworld' but alas I failed... Unlike this, which is so spot on!
I've often tried to create a station out of a torus, and failed. you pretty much got it spot on. Great work.
Fantastic work!
Superb!
Very, very nice. This is a beautiful image.
Outstanding work
Hats off, you did pull this off very well i think many people have tried this concept not an easy one to say the least ! One of the more tougher challenges at the GG society.
i read this trilogy. it was wrtitten by niven. it was called the ringworl engineers . fantastic trilogy this is like the book cover of the book. he did a faNTASTCI JOB IN COPIENG THE BOOK COVER
Incredible Bryce work. You're inspired by the best, but your interpretation and execution is your own.
Wonderful work! I love the ring-world concept as it is a bit more feasable than the Dyson Sphere concept--which in science fiction is generally a misinterpretation of Dyson's original idea which involved a spherical shell of satellites around a sun and not a solid sphere (as depicted in Star Trek and other not-exactly-science fictional sf dramas.) This is gorgeous and truly breathtaking work. I love it.
Fantastic SciFi scene and render! Reminds me of Ringworld.
I have that book, Ringworld, and this is pretty much how I imagined it to look like in my mind as I read it - excellent work!
Thanks for directing me to Alexander Preuss. Jeez! However, that's not to take anything away from this outstanding artwork. Thanks for sharing. You are a Bryce Master.
truly masterful an artist after my own heart, superb simply superb regards Steve
Incredible.
And as usual, you created an another amazing science fiction image. Brilliant work.
Awesome image. Great work on the models & rendering.
Awesome work! I'm glad to see a version of this vision of a ringworld. Great depiction. Very believable.
Excellent!
Now I'm jealous. I once tried to build a Dyson sphere in Bryce, but I was never happy with it. This looks absolutely fantastic and is closer to the mark than anything I ever managed to achieve in that regard.
Well Lordi, thanks for the positive comment, but THIS is what I was going for: https://www.google.com/search?q=alexander+preuss+ring+art&sca_esv=99fd30d500723c13&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS693US693&hl=en-US&tbm=isch&sxsrf=ANbL-n6nsKWT4wQILQL6CizWLYlfdPo4ZA:1781266994003&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjpxrXT2IGVAxVZk4kEHXZVOywQ_AUIBigB&biw=1024&bih=653&biw=1024&bih=653#imgrc=OWMYbbJxi40Z8M
If you can access this link for the work of Alexander Preuss, you’ll see how utterly pathetic my attempt was - totally amateurish by comparison. I might actually try this concept again. As always, though, thanks for your kind words!
