Space Settlement Art

Shown above is the grand prize winner from the NSS Space Settlement 2008 Art Contest. The winning illustration was created by Alexander Preuss, the project was created using over 6,000,000 polygons and 200 megs of textures and took over 60 hours to render. It makes me happy to see the National Space Society running this contest, I know that many of the illustrations that I saw in the 70s inspired me a great deal.
