The time is 160,000BC
(Based on a true story)
It would seem that beginning in the days of the caveman Zan we were touched by the ability to look up into the sky and dream.
I've been on a UFO kick lately. I just love the mystery and otherworldiness of the whole phenomena. One of my all time favorite UFO related groups is the UNARIUS Academy of Science. This groups is just so cool. And they are the inspiration for my latest cgi endeavor. Back in the 70's UNARIUS produced a film entitled "The Arrival." It featured the caveman Zan and the entities that visited him and taught him of his past lives. I haven't actually seen the entire film yet but I have it on order from UNARIUS. You can find clips of it on youtube. Just search "unarius el cajon" to find a good clip.
Anyway what I love about this ship is the sheer gaudiness of it all. The sparkles and garish color schemes are enough to burn your retinas. But yet, there's something endearing about it. That is why I've picked it. I plan on doing the exterior as well as the interior.
So far I've just done some basic blocking in and working on getting the proportions right.

That's when you know right away it's going to be a good one.
160,000 BC! I could only imagine what this species technology would look like today.
I added the upper level and some lights/(windows?) as well as increased the number of domes on the edge from sixteen to eighteen. There are some ring shapes where each leg retracts into the craft.
And yes the blurriness is a bit over the top in some areas.
Here's a screen cap of the ship in Blue Mode.
