Outsider Research Colony This has got webcomic/series written all over it.
I like the art, however it seems the extreme dark rocks which are portrayed to be closer look more like the view is looking out of a cave, however since you can see the path it creates a sort of odd perspective-
That however is just me being extremely acute seeing as there is nothing else to critise lol, rest of it is amazing.
Which brings me to my next point... this sorta thing (authors comments back story included) would suit a webcomic/series perfectly. I am unsure on whether you've done that since I haven't read anything about you, but yeah, definatly look into maybe making a webseries sorta thing, the story is interesting seeing as it's only one paragraph and the art is superb.
Basically, awesome.
