[RenflowerGrapx]

insane! I love it!

[Azélor]

Wow, I wasn't expecting this. I fell like it came out of nowhere.

[XCali]

Just a reminder to use the WIP tag before your latest image. (There is a button for it two icons RIGHT of the insert image)

(Amazing skills you showcased here )

[Naima]

Thankyou.
What tag for the final image?

[Diamond]

It's the same tag/button: the little gray one with 'WIP' in yellow slanted across it. The scraper will automatically pick up the last picture in the thread that has ### Latest WIP ### in front of it.

...And that labeled version just gave you my vote. That is MAJESTIC.

[Naima]

You prefer the labeled version? Isn't too intrusive?
Cant fi d that button , should I add manually like I did for other wips?

[Kellerica]

Can't figure out how to take a sceen cap with this stupid useless piece of crap Mac I'm forced to use here at the office, but the WIP tag button is the second to the right from the icon you use to attach an image to your post. But if you don't like using the button, yeah just put it in manually like in the rest of your WIP posts.

[Diamond]

What she said. ^

And no, the labeled version is AWESOME.

[Naima]

Thanks so I am reposting the last post with the final images for clarity .
Is the Tagging Correct? Couse I put in Manually.

So here is the final image For My First Ever Partecipation in a Mapping Challenge ...

This Dystopian Ringworld was inspired by a Competition in the Cartographers Guild
The Basic Idea is that Humanity living on the Once abitable planet was forced to build a new Home in space because of a Cataclysm that hit the homeworld.
This lead to the Creation of Orbis ( meaning both Ring and World in Latin ) , a Huge megastructure Ring World .

nternal Radius : 32 Km
Angular Velocity : 0.167 Rotations/minute
Tangential Velocity : 560.758 m/sec
Centripetal Acceleration: 1 g
Location : Planet–Moon L5 Lagrangian point
Total mass: 188 million tons (including radiation shield (95%), habitat, and atmosphere)
Diameter: 64 Km
Circumference: 200,96 Km
Habitation antiradiation glass tube diameter thickness: 130 m (430 ft)
Radiation shield: 1.7 meters thick raw lunar soil
Terrain Area Surface : 2009,6 Km^2
Radial terrain diameter : 10 Km
Highest peak : 2000 m
Lowest Peak underwater : 500 m



Trivia On Making of:

There are flocks and Herds hidden in the map.
There are no manmade structures visible
There is a little Reflection of the opposite side of the Ring on the sea based on The Italian Peninsula , barely visible if even .
Geographical Features were taken from New Zealand, Caribbean Islands, Seljalandsfoss in Iceland for the Waterfall and Alaska clouds Green landscape mountain nature river Snowy Peak Spring Valleym the Highest mountain Peak is from Alps In Italy.
The Little Spaceships are from my previously made Eva Pods for the Albatross Spaceship.


Softwares used :

Keyshot for Basic Single Element rendering
Photoshop for Photomanipulation , Texturing, composition and everything else.
Grand Designer for The Planet and the moon.

Time to complete 32 - 48 hours.
