![HM: Myself and the team love [The Phantom Menace]. When Watto comes on screen we all cheer and clap, usually we just turn the movie off as there is no reason to continue further. So that design came out of our love for him, and is an homage to the geniuses at Lucasfilm. We also thought we could improve it by adding a gigantic and well-defined sphincter, but upon reflection it doesn't need it. The original design is sublime.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:a7fta5rcdchq42rjf7op3p6j/bafkreia7atftmdqfqxolq6pxcauh7itinqbgavrg65q6hkfmwi6prihi5q@jpeg)

The ansible was the first 'final tier' buildings for the city, and I'm really happy with how it came out. Two towering arches, with not quite transparent portals...

LANTERN
In the deep cloud layers of Amber lives a society of sentient creatures, thin translucent membranes surrounding huge volumes of gases, floating among the clouds. Eras past, a colony of humans grew within one of these creatures, and later grew into Lantern.
