Hi all,

I am really excited about this challenge.I would like to do some kind of space colony floating in the space inspired by NASA artwork.
My goal is to have
-a sense of big scale environment
-procedural modeling of colony
-realistic lighting and rendering

Here is a few artwork that I will be using as a reference to do my concept design.

a little prototyping and curiosity to see how well mantra can handle with massive amount of polygons with PBR.
2450208 polygons x 2 after instancing.
2 diffuse and 2 reflection for PBR.

render time is about 15mins on my i7 quadcore.

This is just the base system of landscape and random copy/stamping from my previous project.
I will be modeling more clean and sci-fi houses for the challenge.
