Mission Control: "Congratulations on being the first to walk on the surface of Mars!" Astronaut 1: "Do you want to tell them?" Astronaut 2:" Hell, no, man!"

It's criminal that this video only has 16k views. It's deserving of much more. I wasn't sure about the grass, but once you added the alien plants I think it really worked. Good job

Somehow, using words like "incredible," "fantastic," or even "awesome" to describe this diorama all fall short. The best I can do is to say that this is probably the most imaginative, well-executed diorama that I've seen anywhere in months! I especially like the statue; kind of a Cyberpunk take on Akhenaten. I also like the body-language of the astronauts that suggests shock and awe at their discovery. I get the idea that they were so distracted by the statue, they have yet to notice the flora. Thanks for sharing this with us! 290th like.

I was looking for a statue that was kinda gothic and when I saw this one... there was no second guessing.

The diorama looks really good. It's just a lot of red tones throughout. The statue really pops out as the focal point. The astronauts blend in to the base. Not sure if that was an accident or planned. Great concept and work on it.

@ScaleModelGeek

3 ай бұрын

I agree about a lot of red but I really wanted the alien statue to 'pop' out of the landscape as it show it doesn't belong there. I think the red on the space suits counteracted the yellow and made the astronauts blend in a bit more than I had hoped. Thanks for watching

I love it! It reminds me of the very old Sci-Fi book covers released in the 80s. I have fond memories from that era of covers and books! 😂

This is great! May I make one comment, however? I kind of wish the two human astronauts looked a little more like the "traditional" astronauts we're familiar with. The colors and especially the shape of the helmets makes them look a bit alien as well. Again, fantastic job! 👍🏻

@@ScaleModelGeek Okay, then what I suggested wouldn't work. Thank you for explaining! The reason for my idea is that I've seen others create glassy effects like that, with thick clear coats or even resin. I'm sure you've seen that too. If you're using a specific medium to achieve that effect, it makes sense that you can't apply some other technique to "save" the situation if it doesn't work. (I'm not trying to explain this to you, since you obviously are the one with experience here. I'm mostly trying to explain it to myself, and I'm leaving it in for the benefit of anyone else with the same question.) The diorama turned out great in any case. I like the alien "plants", suggesting an abandoned attempt at terraforming the planet, perhaps?
