26B1 is an Asteroid rich with carbon, a science mining facility was built there to collect these compounds. By building the facility close to the canyon the crew members can receive all the water they need - this is due to the star's heat melting the ice away from its inner surface.

While the miners spend many years on the rock the scientist conduct their experiments on the crew some of which is to see how the human body can cope with the conditions of space.

Thanks Im really glad you like this ^^ this space art was one of my earlier sci-fi designs. Looking back on it now I really had wished I re-edited this artwork, now that I have a graphic tablet I can always make improvements.

When I was painting this artwork I remembered I wanted to add a few structures on canyons and show some settlers (in space suites) mining for minerals. Some extra drone ships flying around would have been cool as well. Maybe after our collab project I can maybe come back to this artwork ;)

Yeah I was going to use one of your space paintings as a background for two cartoon characters I drew.
I will keep you informed on the progress ;)

this is really cool, not quite realistic but not cartoonish. it gives a nice, almost, digital comic book effect. it looks really nice (this may sound weird but) it kind of gives the sense of calm and isolation, yet also a feeling of development and company.

Hi thank you for the feedback, I am glad you liked this space art. I could've made it a little more realistic but I didn't have the time to work on it. The only thing l left out was adding a space worker climbing down the canyon because from the scene you are actually seeing it from their perspective. This one of course was an early design while doing the art it became a learning experience to study lighting and colour.

Im amazed you had them mixed feelings I didn't expect I would be getting that from viewers thanks for sharing that with me I also felt similar too like a calm feeling yet alone in a peaceful way.
