Crystal terrarium sketch (Click to enlarge)
Crystal terrarium sketch   Art   Miles | 4/10/2017  log in to like post  7

I drew this on the other side of the envelope :P

The image might be small, so I'll describe some parts.

The door from the Ark to this room is in the top right corner. It has three levels, the top is styled like the bottom of the Norn Terrarium. It matches the organic aesthetic of the rest of the ship, and has a seed+critter replenisher.

The second level is a little house and porch someone carved out of the crystal, with a teleporter going into a small geode area, and an elevator down going to the bottom floor.

The bottom floor has a crystal-willow tree on the left side, that drops edible seeds. If the seeds aren't eaten, they plant themselves and turn into crystal carrots. To the right, there is a large crystal ramp going to the largest area in the terrarium, which has a tree growing from the ceiling and various plants growing underneath.

There's a small pond underneath this area which is inaccessible to creatures normally. There are some norns standing around to get a sense of scale.

Looking really interesting, I think it would be rather unique project and the story you wrote up is a lot of fun. I really enjoy that the smaller corridors and rooms are at the top, giving it a rather unique layout (I understand why it's uncommon though as most rooms are surface-ecosystem-based). Actually, the crystal "tree" kind of gives the whole room a cool "upside down" appeal.

(It's way too early to say as this is a sketch, but I think it may be a good idea to not give everything the same color or texture as its likely make it a bit monotone to look at :) )
