Dannylonglegs Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Planet: E02 Tags: Land vehicle, Science, Exploration, Civil //"Log date 357, this is Dr. Danielle Long, reporting from the surface of E02. I am accompanying one of my Drones as it collects samples, and making observations on the natural growth habits of the local xeno-flora. Air is breathable, Temperature is a pleasant 20 degrees Celsius at night at my current location, and the stars are readily visible. In-fact, I believe I can see the O.C.S. Axle from where I am.... This planet will make a fine resort-world for Octan's retirees. Naturally, specimens must be taken to scan for harmful bio-organisms and viruses, the analysis of which will take place in the pristine labs aboard the O.C.S. Axle. Dr. Long signing off."// Science by the light of the stars //"This is Dr. Long, aboard personal shuttle O.C.S. Cog 1, entering Space Dock 1 of O.C.S. Axle. Prepare decontamination shower for myself and my pilot. Aboard craft are 6 Sc106 Drones filled with xenobiological specimens. Follow typical extraction protocol for low-threat xenobiological contaminants. primary containment and threat assessment in high-risk section of Axle, followed by distribution to low-threat labs as deemed appropriate. Arrival time in approximately 10 minutes. Make that chemical shower warm, and prepare my usual soap cocktail. Dr. Long signing off."// Decontamination Note: This piece was meant to convey a sense of loneliness and cold removedness, and the red chemical shower itself is meant to be rather off-putting. All-in-all I wanted to evoke Fan-Disservice, and not the more ubiquitous opposite of that trope. The build was actually quite a bit more difficult than the pictures may imply, but it was built specifically for this one shot, so the technique I used to create the octagon that comprises the shower goes completely unnoticed. hope you enjoy! But not too much. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Edited June 29, 2015 by Dannylonglegs Quote
Zaael Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Dr Long half naked... Too bad Z wasn't aboard the Axle when that happened! Quote
Jody Meyer Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Ha Zaael, that's right you need to be written up for spying on the boss?!? Great build, shower looks good Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Already saw all of that, nothing new to me ... Except the red chemical... Quote
WickNole Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Already saw all of that, nothing new to me ... Except the red chemical... Are you sure? Checked Dr.Long's story so far - nothing similar yet. Or do you mean the WIP pics? Edited June 29, 2015 by WickNole Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Should have mentionned that what I was saying was "in character". Quote
Zepher Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Lovely build, Danny, and a cool direction for Dr. Long. I really love how she's coming along as a character. Maybe it's because every Octan build seems to mention her, but she's certainly one of the most towering figures in AG so far, and taking that myth (protocol loving, corporate serving, callous) and making it more personal is a good call. The builds match well for it, and I would say that shower's build is not lost - even those walls before the shower door are clearly at an intriguing angle. Love the one locker open as well. Cinematic! Quote
Big Sal Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Yeah, there's a real cinematic quality to this - great job! Quote
mccoyed Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Love that second shot. The use of pistols and binoculars on the vehicle gives it a great look. Quote
Andromedas Gates Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 The judges awarded you 3 points. No bonus points were added for fan-disservice. Quote
Commander Turtle Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 This works really well IMO, very evocative. Quote
Mike S Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Interesting builds and photography especially that last shot with the long corridor and the trans blue panel for the shower door! Was looking for Kodan Black but looks like Danielle Long was able to escape him for a while... Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 Dr Long half naked... Too bad Z wasn't aboard the Axle when that happened! It seems everyone wants to see her naked! Must be because of her cheery personality, and excellent people skills. Ha Zaael, that's right you need to be written up for spying on the boss?!? Great build, shower looks good Thanks! At any rate, those aboard the Axle should be more worried about the Boss spying on them! Already saw all of that, nothing new to me ... Except the red chemical... ...

Cinematic! Thanks a lot! You really do seem to be picking up on everything I've tried to do with her, and that really makes me pleased! I had this particular build lined up from the beginning. Thanks! Yeah, there's a real cinematic quality to this - great job! Thanks! I like interesting visuals like this that can convey more about the situation (on many levels) than simple words. Fantastic build for that hall shot! Thanks! Love that second shot. The use of pistols and binoculars on the vehicle gives it a great look. Thanks! That's actually where it started!

Was looking for Kodan Black but looks like Danielle Long was able to escape him for a while... Why do you think she keeps sending him on missions off-ship! I'm really glad this scene conveyed what I had hoped it would! Sorry for the late response! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
