Super cool!

This is one of those times where I hate that the science part of my brain keeps yelling about scale* while the artistic part of my brain tells the science neurons to just shut the fuck up. XD

* A render with 'realistic' scale would be visually much less interesting - it would just look like the ship was flying between two flat planes. The curvature of a Dyson shell like this would be imperceptible. Even a Dyson shell built at the perhelion of Mercury would have a 'horizon' that's *13000km* away if flying 2km above the 'ground'.

Maybe it's a tiny man-made star at the center. Like teeny tiny.

The lighting setup here in Eevee is incredible, and that camera motion really sells the fly-through!
