Description
"I think we should go ahead and board that craft. It's not responding and it's right where I predicted we'd find it. It has to be what's left of Golden Opportunity."
"Hmmm."
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered in Poser 12.0.757 and tweaked in Photoshop. Both characters are based on the venerable V4 mesh. They are viewed through the astrogator station window; the astrogation station is by Coflek-Gnorg.
I don't have names and only a vague idea of the story of these two. I see them as scavengers who get by as salvagers of deserted and wrecked craft; futuristic treasure hunters who mostly have to settle for scrap. If you like their looks or have thoughts about them let me know.

Impressive atmosphere, outstanding awesome composition, excellent litghting, brilliant render.
Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it!
Thank you for a very lovely bit of encouragement, Marius. =)

This scene is highly detailed and impressive work Molly. 🤩👍❤
Thank you, my dear. Of course, that's mostly due to the wonderful content by Coflek-Gnorg. I needed a break from some of the stories I've been working on and this is what came out. XD

Space scavenging must be so very risky! Then again, I just watched the episode of Foundation where they arrive on a ship that's set to attack and kill intruders, and I sure wouldn't want to try scavenging from such a ship :-) I hope this crew has a more benevolent craft to explore!
Oooh! I really enjoyed Foundation and hope they will continue. It's really different in so many ways from the books which I read in High School. As for Scavenging in Space it's clearly a high risk, low yield enterprise but there's always the hope of stumbling across something really valuable. =)

Excellent setting for these two characters! I'm not familiar with this story. Will have to retrace my steps! At any rate, Bravo and many fine kudos from me!
Thanks, Rad. There's nothing to retrace though; in truth, I am not familiar with these characters either. Sometimes I kind of clear my mind palette by creating a new character or two. This is the first picture with these two and I don't even know their names at this point. I like the gritty sci fi style as opposed to the retro style I have used more often in the past. We'll see if we get to know these two a bit more intimately of if this remains a "one off" for the moment. =)

Great camera angle and characters!
Thank you. It's a lovely piece of content and I wanted to include more of it but really needed to pull in on my characters more. As it is, I'm still a bit far away from them. ;-\

fun image! love the name of the ship!!
Yes, I have only a partly formed story in mind but "Golden Opportunity" was to be a survey and mining ship. I'm glad you read my text as well as enjoy my pictures. =)

Good spaceship scene. I like the red hair as one of the few spots of color. It keeps the scene dark and mysterious and yet eye-catching (as I try to read the panel in the back.)
Heh. I'm not sure that the panel can be read. I like her red hair, too. I had the idea that she's a very human little blotch in an otherwise unfeeling chunk of tech. =)
