This is a really strong atmospheric scene you have produced well, nice depth in the scene as well

Thank you! Love your work too.
Even wonder if we could work together on some project like a gamebook or an illustrated story. Something short ofc cause time is so precious )
It could be: you draw pictures, we or some writer writes the story and I put it in the form of a gamebook or simple movie: slide show with writing /sound effects and music.

That does sound interesting, what sort of subject matter?

I would say definitely post-apocalyptic universes or survival science fiction such like movies : Screamers, Alien, Pitch black.
Maybe we could use an already built universe (which can be twisted a little bit ofc).
As for the story itself (the thing that counts more than universe, drawings or text quality at the end ), dunno yet.

Drawings of yours that motivates this idea :

Outpost / Sea bed / Antartic settlement / Legacy / Martian rangers(2) / Power core towers 'redux' / Ship relic /
Riding piggyback / Welcome to Mars...

Something I'm sure of, is that it has to be a very very small story. That way we will quickly see if the immersion works or not

post apocalyptic landscapes are lots of fun to do but I really like the sound of the survival Sci Fi theme

In fact I prefer survival Sci Fi too but problem is that until the 90s it was still possible to imagine stories on far far planets.
Now the level of science is such that unfortunately everyone is aware that it's completely impossible to travel far from our Solar system.
And maybe that explains why there are so few Sci Fi authors who still imagine stories far from Earth (like mining colonies on an unknown planet ).

Of course, Heroic fantasy stories still work even if we know it's impossible . But Sci Fi was stronger than Fantasy for that reason: "ok maybe not now but what we see on this movie could happen in the future. "
Now we know for sure: science has proven it can't happen.

But well nevermind, maybe science is wrong and there is still an unknown way to travel far from Earth!
Or maybe the story could happen on another system where humans exists like on Earth with the difference that there are 2 planets where life is possible in their solar sytem.
Or story could happen on a mining colony on Mars (it has already been done many many times but it's always existing )

On first sight I thought this is a concept art to Fallout...

Love it.

Thank you. Actually, I love both. Vermine is darker than Fallout (like the difference between movies The Road and Mad Max 2 )
