UPDATE: changed the lights on the planet to make it look more spherical.
The largest of the alien mega structures, a huge artificial solar system powered by two suns . The entire thing was constructed to be a legacy to their civilization, everything they ever were, all their technology, all their culture and arts was placed within its giant data banks. It is a giant library of an entire race, and a symbol of their artistic abilities. ________________________________________________
So here is Core as it should have been before, There were many things I didn't like about the other version the main ones were the planet being to boring and those clouds. So I pimped the planet and removed the clouds around Core and replaced them with more flares and some dust rings.
Spent about 10-12 hours of extra work ontop of the weeks it took to make the original.
I think this version lives upto the expectations I had about it when coming up with the idea.
