    Does any one need any more time to complete their images?  

    Need to think about closing the contest so we can start the voting process.

    Most enjoyable challenge and excellent entries all around.

    Here’s mine: “Outward Bound”

    The ship and station were cobbled together from Modo’s Space Ship construction set.

    UV mapping and texturing are mine - mostly with images from CG Textures.com.

    The planet is 2 Bryce spheres. one slightly larger. The inner sphere uses a JPL Venus map form the Solar Views site. The outer sphere uses a volumetric Bryce cloud texture. 

    The stars are a Bryce 2D  face, mapped with a star image from Artmatic 7. Engine “flare” effect are volume visible / very short ranged elongated omni lights.

    The scene is illuminated by the Bryce sun and a light blue sky IBL and the star map is lit by a parallel spot lights.

    Full size render, posted here:

    took about 3.5 hours to render at 64 RPP, True Ambience enabled.

    Thanks for taking a look!

    With the above list, we can go very far beyond the next decade. Great to have so many suggestions.

    I can add some too:

    • Your favourite song (or music) - must be clear or clarify how your render fits the song/music
    • Your favourite poem - must be clear or clarify how the render illustrates the poem
    • Recreate a famous artwork (with a twist)
    • City scene
    • Time travel
    • Here come the aliens!
    • Kings and queens

    Just some suggestions. You can do with them, what you like,
