Initally, Mzzkiti was meant to merely question a suspicious looking egg, but as I noted in the original post, I kept escalating the situation as I worked upon it. "Hmm, will viewers recognize the egg for what it is? Maybe I should open it. But, if the egg has opened, that would suggest a teenie 'facehugger' is on the loose! Maybe I can have Mzzkiti squashing it like a spider with her hand or even just a thumb. Oh, I have an idea! It's stupidly juvenile, but it just might garner a chuckle or an amused eye roll!" Nah, 'Alien' fans will argue that'll release the acid blood.

I already had dressed our merry Moggian in a quasi "Rocketeer" ensemble and saved it some time before I had started to experience PC issues. It was a simple matter to swap her "normal" mane for a closer fitting hairpiece over which I could cap it with a genre appropriate hat. I tried a pith helmet at first, but the thought the safari hat better suited her. The environment was also something I already had on hand. Packaged as the "Steamworks Interior", I had used it in a composition I called "steam monkey" (a steampunk "grease monkey" mechanic) several years ago. I loaded that old "scene" removed the mechanic character, added the Cavorite sphere and Mzzkiti in her steampunk attire.

Of course I reworked the camera angle and focal length I positioned the sphere and the ladder and I posed Mzzkiti to triumphantly present the anti-gravity vehicle. That almost never happens! But in this instance, it perfectly fit "as was".Starship Modeler: 'To the Moon' Sci-Fi Modeling Contest But to my surprise, I did not alter the original lighting I staged years ago, not the angle, the brightness, nor the color. Starship Modeler is proud to announce the start of our eighteenth online modeling contest. This one commemorates the 40th anniversary of humanity's first landing on Earth's moon.
