Animation of cryovolcanism of Triton, the largest moon of Neptune. These icy geysers were observed by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. It is thought that solar heating vaporises nitrogen below a translucent surface, until the pressure builds up enough to force an eruption. #scicomm #spaceart

I cannot wait for this mission But meantime, I prefer my visualisation 🤔 #spaceart #Blender

Hi, folks! Here's one of my earliest and still favourite animations, created in 3ds Max in 2011. It's shows the hellish landscape of Earth's Hadean Eon, shortly after the formation of the Moon, more than 4 billion years ago. Who wants to go?

Quick animation of the asteroid Vesta, second largest one of all, showing the topology in false colour. Created in #Blender. #sciart #spaceart

#sciart #spaceart #blender Animation of a type of binary star system called a DQ Her star. A white dwarf is in mutual orbit with a larger red dwarf. The strong gravitational field of the dense white dwarf draws hot gas from its companion, which forms an accretion disc around the white dwarf. 1/

Stylised and far-fetched animation of an orbital ring around the Earth. Such structures, if we ever build them, will in reality be invisible from such a distance. #SciArt #blender #spaceart

Greetings all, and I hope that the first complete rotation of our planet in this new year has been kind. Here's an animation of the planet Mars rising above its innermost moon, Phobos, as the latter rotates. #SciArt #blender #spaceart

I'd like to thank all my new followers. I'm nearly at 2000. Not bad for only a year on this platform. Keep em coming! And my very best wishes to all of you for whichever holiday, or not, you celebrate.

Day 21 of #ArtAdventCallendar. Here's an animation of an orbital ring. It surrounds the Earth in a continuous loop and could serve as a platform to launch vehicles from low-Earth orbit. Read alt-text for more details. Made with #Blender #sciart #scifi

#ArtAdventCalendar day 20. Already! Here's an animation of a space elevator. Made with #Blender3d because of course. #SciArt #spaceart Please repost 😊

More #sciart featuring #Mars for #ArtAdventCalendar day 17. Mars gets pulverised and rebuilt after a collision with another worlds. Not the most accurate simulation but it gets the point across. Made in #Blender, commissioned by @davidskybrody.bsky.social for a documentary.

#ArtAdventCalendar day 16. An early attempt by me to use mocaps for character animations. An astronaut on Mars. Created in 2019 using 3dsmax. #SciArt #scifiart

#ArtAdventCalendar day 14 A early animation showing a Tyrannosaurus walking across a desolate landscape. Made with 3dsmax in 2018. #SciArt #animation

Ok day 11 of #ArtAdventCalendar already. Here's part of my O'Neill Colony sequence. Made in #Blender Took forever. #SciArt #scifiart

For day 8 of #ArtAdventCalendar, I present this animation I did about three years ago, showing a flight through a type of space colony called a Stanford Torus. #SciArt created in #Blender

NASA released some shape models of four of Saturn's moons. These have every lump and bump; they're not simple spheres. Here's a test render I did in #Blender showing #Mimas in false color - red is high, blue low. Clearly shows how non-spherical it is! #sciart #spaceart 1/2

Hello, followers! Sorry, been a bit busy lately so haven't posted much. Here's a glimpse for you of my latest work in progress. Would much appreciate any reposts. Many thanks. #blender #sciart #scapeart

A space elevator is a proposed structure to get payloads into, you guessed it, space, without the heavy costs involved with rocketry. Several companies are seriously thinking about building one. Who thinks it'll ever happen? Made in #Blender. #SciArt #spaceart #scifi @isecdotorg.bsky.social

A (not at all realistic) space elevator arrives at a station at an altitude of 50km. Created in Blender. #scifiart #SciArt #spaceart

Thanks, Jason. Just for you, here's a choppy and noisy WIP of just that. Needs more work: #blender #spaceart #sciart

I've posted this before, but here's one of my external views.

Wassup, folks? I've been working (WIP) on this corridor in a circular hotel in space. It's doing my head in. Think I have artists' block. Not sure where to take this. What do you think? #blender #sciart #spaceart #3danimation

Very old (2013) #3Danimation created in #Blender3d, depicting the formation of Earth's Moon. The Earth has been hit by a Mars-sized body, throwing debris into orbit, from which the Moon is coalescing. #SciArt #spaceart

Billions of years ago, the Earth looked like this. Those structures are called stromatolites: sedimentary formations created by microorganisms, e.g. cyanobacteria. They can still be found today, mostly as fossils; living ones are also known but rare. #SciArt #blender #b3d #Blender3d

Hello, Blue Sky. Here's a #b3d #animation showing a mining operation on a small asteroid. #SciArt #spaceart #Blender

Wow, I can't believe this animation is 14 years old! One of my very first, back in the days of 3DS Max. It shows a binary star system called a cataclysmic variable. For my PhD and my sins, I worked on systems like these. (Well, not ON on.) #SciArt #spaceart #astronomy #3Danimation 1/2

Quick animation of a brief flight over the icy surface of Pluto. Charon is in the sky. Created in #blender. #sciart #scicomm #spaceart #3danimation

Animation of #Mars during its Noachian Period, 4100-3700 MYa. The period is characterised by high rates of meteorite impacts, volcanism and possibly abundant surface water. However, the water is thought to have been localized rather than spanning the planet ... #Blender #sciart #spaceart 1/3
