My Entry
For this challenge I wanted to to do something blocky, stylized and colorful. My aim was to take the low poly 3d look and push it further.
I tried to take the low poly modelling style and push it. Keeping hard edges. Lots of bevelling and modelling. No textures aside from some color ramps. Everything else is just simple materials with flat/constant inputs (albedo,spec,emission).
Didn't quite turn out how I liked but pretty happy with the result. Wanted to do a lot more smaller details. Had to rescope. Would like to come back to this at some point and make a little animation.

The Story
Rover SP-E 09 is an exploratory unit has stumbled upon a unknown material in the shape of a monolith. After relaying the contact with head command they have been tasked with securing the area and to set up monitoring equipment. Once preliminary tests are complete and the material is deemed safe enough to transport they will take a sample back to home base.
