This time i will start with a simple 3d model that i am working on right now.
Then i will integrate it with the polar landscape and paint it over in photoshop.

I finally found some free time to work with this one. I added a little more detail to the 3D complex to save some time in painting and texturing in photoshop later. Now is time for alien winter background and some kind of a twist or something.

Damn! We have the city here :))) It definetly looks cool, but, your previous draft .... it looks more romantic (if u know what I mean), it looks like kind of lonely small lab incide of ice cold ground/hills.
It's just my drunk opinion, I'm under tequilla now %) And I think Im wrong. Lets other guys tell you what they think about it.

That's impressive man; what software did you use to make the 3D complex ?

Hi Costa. I am learning Maya and this complex is realy just a bunch of boxes and pipes. :)
Just smoke and mirrors..

In process of adding snow and icicles. Texturing still in progress and background is going to be swapped by a little bit more spacy ambient background with some planets and stars.
