Carrara Challenge #22: “Wild, Wild West”

LINK: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/68508/carrara-challenge-22-wild-wild-west-wip-thread

You just finished watching TV series "Hell On Wheels", "Longmire" , "Firefly" (My personal favorite), movie "Wild, Wild West", "Back To The Future: Part III", spaghetti western with Clint Eastwood or some old western movie from 

50's with John Wayne and you got inspired, or, maybe, you simply admire prairie/desert landscapes and their serenity with wild horses running around, tumbleweeds rolling across and snakes and lizards 

crawling all over the place ...

Your objective: Create scene which has Wild West painted all over it.

Every subject which comes to your mind is allowed, fantasy, steam punk, sci-fi, or whatever floats your (steam-powered) boat wink

 

Basic rules will be:

1. Each participant may submit up to 2 images into the Challenge.

2. Images must be new (previously unpublished).

3. Images must be primarily set up in Carrara.

4. Images must be rendered in Carrara or in an external renderer for which there is a Carrara plug-in (e.g. LuxRenderer, Octane).

5. At least one WIP (work in progress) image must be posted to the WIP thread (this can be as simple as the scene setup, a pre/post post-work comparison or just a final image with a brief description of    

   the process you used or as complex as modeling rooms shots, shader setups or partial scene setups or test renders).

6. At least one object in the scene has to be modeled in Carrara.

    Have an idea to start but am suffering a creative block.  Will add some electronics to the face.  Come vacation in WestLand, not to be confused with Westworld.  This is kitbashing genesis David 5 with content for Stephanie 3's The Gunslinger.  Constructive suggestions very welcome to help me get unstuck.  Maybe I should combine Crichton's Westworld with his Jurassic Park stuff? 

    If you have Carrara but haven't used it in a while, this is contest theme coud be a good one to join the fun.
