IEV Sunshine
A build with the title: Strangers in a strange land. The spaceship IEV Sunshine is a Interstellar Exploration Vessel that travels in space looking for planets with sentient lifeforms and new plants that could be used for medicines. Vi is the captain and Yor is her husband that also is the ship’s mechanic. The two scientists Lema and Mari have a robot called Gjor that helps them when they search the planets. The last crew member is the pilot Tor, today it's his birthday and Mari is preparing a birthday "fika" (feast). They landed a short distance away but as the captain Vi, Lema and Gjor moved in the terrain they decided to land closer so they all could celebrate Tor together. All while Yor is traversing the wing to find a small problem with the solar panels. Now they are flying in to land on this new planet again, closer to the explorers. We hope they all have a nice fika and a successful mission!
That's the story I developed during building this. As almost always I have a "hidden" or deeper meaning in my builds or something in the builds that connects to things in my life. Sci-fi was my first book crush and I still love to read sci-fi as well as fantasy. Those of you who have read about my other builds know that I live with chronic pain and have had a really hard time the last couple of years. It's getting a little bit better but how do you go from surviving life to starting to living it? Me and my husband are strangers to this new strange land of things you do when you really live. To enjoy family and friends more, travel and experience new things. Learn new skills and have more energy to "unnecessary" things. It's exciting and at the same time scary. It's hard mental work to be more open and to believe that things will work out. These thoughts have coloured my process when building it. I wanted it to be joyful but the ship didn't turn out that way in my meaning. That slowed down my building and I had to wrap my mind around that the vessel to this strange land carried all my emotions and baggage and is more austere as a result. But the landscape is all my joy, all the things we want to experience for so many more years together.
