    To tell you more is difficult, especially as Red Dwarf was never aired in Germany unfortunately..

  • spikeyxxx Congratulations on your work being staff picked πŸ˜€! Well-deserved πŸ‘! Now you need to tell me more about Dave Lister and his crashed space ship πŸ˜‰.

  • Glad you like it ttanya53 ! Playmobil it is indeed ;)

  • Looks just like a kids lego or playmobile. The. hands ad feet are perfect. I really like the shirt. and. the fish nibbling on the feet.

  • Thanks @theluthier !
    Great points.
    I agree that the scene would ned more trees, but I started way too late (95% of this is done on the last day...).
    I did put a subtle Voronoi on the 'sand', but It could use a bit more; I was just thinking, everything is made of plastic and I shouldn't mes with the material too much. But you are right, it is too pristine now.

    Spikey! Glad to see you have an entry in this challenge.

    I love the toy context. The plastic material feels good! Only addition I'd like to see is some breakup of the specular reflection with a noise texture. It feels a little to pristine imo.

    Compositionally I would have liked to see a jungle featuring the kind of tree you've made. It's way too appealing to not see more of :)

    Finally I'll suggest that something to break up the sand would go a long way. Whether its a wavy kind of pattern or voronoi (or mix). Currently it almost reads as a solid color occupying the majority of the image. Giving it some detail would increase the appeal. Even some sparkles would be nice.

    Good stuff, Spikey πŸ‘
