This is my concept piece. The image shows the V/STOL and Tuberider moving down the Plasma Tube approaching Axis City. The lighting and textures will change when I become better with Blender but this will do for my concept.

Help - The models for my scene are very big so it is hard to light the scene. If someone could please help me understand how to create a scene with small models that shows lots of depth it would be much appreciated.

Since I don't have internet it is hard for me to post all the time but I'm glad to see all the participants. I am in the process of reading the book (currently pg 150) so I can find the scene that I want to re-create. After looking at peoples' WIP I am finding that reading the book may have it's advantages. Although people are great artists they are not sticking to the actual story. It reminds me of books to film that just don't relate to the original story. This should be a fun contest.http://forums.cgsociety.org/images/icons/icon10.gif

I have found so far that the Tuberider and V/STOL and Thistledown grab my attention the most. Maybe I will try to incorporate them into one piece. Because I can’t afford anything I'm going to use Blender and Yafray to do my work.
