Description

Concept of an alien forest of a terraformed by humans located on a moon light years from Earth.
If you want to use the brushes I use, go to this link. fav.me/d62bwde

Also used fav.me/d1zxy5r to help add some texture to the trees.
I've also created a walk through for this piece. fav.me/d62cm00


Unlike Mars which solar stripping and other forms of atmospheric erosion will take tens of millions of years, which is a very easy problem to solve, just use self replicating nano tech or factories to keep the atmosphere buffed up.

A moon however even a large one like Luna (Earth's moon) would take 10s of thousands of years for stripping to make it nolonger suitable for human life without a space suit. To solve the problem, I propose building a global invisible dome to cover the entire moon, it can 1) sit above the atmosphere and orbit around the moon or 2)rest on top of the atmosphere (pillars if needed).

big fat congrats - and now I silently (and a bit demoralised) go away and grab up my dropped jaw.

Awesome job, and one of the best jungle szenes I ever saw, even after some years.
