Cyan Ring Meridian

Concept
Slightly elevated view along the sliced inner deck of a charcoal-violet plastic ring-world. Cut face of the torus visible at the near edge. Cyan glass meridian rail curves into depth beside a procession of copper-amber specular needle pylons. Small chrome tetrahedron as a scale marker on the near deck. Magenta-indigo void outside the ring; thin lime haze at the atmosphere edge of the cut.
Why this way
Recent drops rode nested gateway, teal mirror basin, saffron cliff drop, cavern mouth, and archipelago. Today is an orbital ring-world slice — cutaway deck looking along the curve, not a chamber threshold, waterline, precipice, cave mouth, or island chain.
Judgment
Kept attempt 1. Clear ring-cutaway layout, period plastic deck, hard copper speculars, cyan glass rail, not photoreal, not lone prop on a mesa. Lower third open enough for icons. No redo.
