Description
Humans are a stubborn and clever creature, in general. This is more often on overt display in the myriad assorted pieces often assembled into the stations that orbit various planets and moons visited by our kind. Seemingly anything that can be used, will be used wherever a people stop for a bit, either while passing through to another world, or preparing to drop into the gravity-well of some promising body. The actual name of this station is far less interesting, but I took to calling it "Jumble-Station" while my ship was approaching, it seemed to feature nearly every type of mass-produced component used to make these kinds of stations, and even though I didn't spend enough time to learn more about its inhabitants, the image of its odd assortment of pieces still defines much of how I see our species even now.
-From "The Travels of Martin Leftwick, Wanderer and Observer" a popular post-war biography
-------------
I decided to return to the idea of the hodge-podge of pieces that a modular station or ship allows, not necessarily a grimy or ragged piece of the human puzzle, but more the creativity and adaptability of our species in the face of adversity.
As usual, the station is entirely my own creation, modeled in Bryce 6.5, most textures are my own, some are presets or modified presets. The planet is a somewhat re-used from my last post, but I did a slightly different treatment of it to give it a hopefully different overall look. This was done in Photoshop, as was the stars, compositing and other post working.
Thanks for taking a look, and comments, critiques, questions, and suggestions are most definitely welcome! I hope you're all having a good weekend.

Very nice work! That's a jumble, already. Hopefully they have clear directions about where to dock.
Top notch design work and texturing!!!
Wow - this give a whole new meaning to "Adapt, Improvise, Overcome." And indeed, if our species lasts long enough, I would expect to see structures like this scattered around the galaxy. Superb work as always, Mike! Your Bryce and Photoshop skills are top-notch all the way!
Impressive Modeling...Looks like possible greenhouse modules which would help transfer plant life on a new planet ..Cool Sci-Fi Scene/Modeling!
Great texture..stunning space image! :)
Looks great, Mike.Love your texturing.
Fantastic modeling! Corrie
Magnifique et Fantastique création de station spatiale !!! Très bonne sciFi !!! Fantastic and beautiful creation of a space station! Very good scifi!
Amazing modelling and textures and creative docking choices for the crews! :)
Excellent work!
Does the station come with clear directions for getting around inside? Great modelling as always!
Superb space station and scene!!!
cool construct, great image
GREAT WORK !!!!
Wow...that is a wild ship...they must have used algebra...LOL
Awsome chaos.
Actually, I think it is a very apt name for the place.
Dig the design and modelling work, not to mention the neat texturing ! Sorta like a shanty-town in space ! Well done & ~Cheers~
I would hate to be the one of the astronauts that had to put this station together. Your modeling work just keeps getting better with every post. I really like all the find details, which you are putting in to your models. The heat radiators, hatches, and observation cupolas that you have attached give this picture all the more realism that is required for an excellent presentation. Always enjoy seeing what you come up with next. All the best, David
Very cool work!
Excellent work.
COMPLEX!!! David
Sci-Fi and always the less of a possible future
Excellent assemblage. Great scene and story.
Wow, so many great details! I bet it was fun modeling that! ;)
Great render!
Awesome and very detailed work! This station really looks like jumble :-) P.S. I like the story!
