Dawn over Southern Desert - a megaurchins familly in first rays of a distant sun.
The old sun that is the source of life on ET016, on Earth night sky is only a barely visible sparkle, which light must travel for 469 years before it reach our eyes.
Really a close neighborhood in galactic scale - it is barely 0,5% of our Galaxy diameter. It seems that humanity could never travel so far - but in XXXVII century man colonized this remote planetary system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is continuation of Megaurchins Canyon story
Megaurchins were build in Poser - their spikes were made from free tentacle hair ( avalable from DAZ3D website - you must login for free products)
The rest is "MADE IN VUE PRO", textures are procedural, sky was build in Vue (this is not a bitmap)
Only very limited postwork was appied to the scene - some low pass filter & unsharp applied localy. Reduced size picture on my website gallery has no postwork.
To learn how to build such rock formations in Vue (or other programs that offer elevation map terrain ex. Bryce) - check my tutorial on Advanced Terrains in Vue.
To learn more about correct lighting of scenes simulating ambient light - check
my Lighting Tutorial on personal website.
I hope you will like it - sorry no deer today ;-)) but desert dawn looks almost as good as a romantic sunset over a beach , and megaurchins "haircut" can simulate palms - so a classic scene ;-)
