gimp.jpg - The final 640x768x24-bit image rendered with Imagine 3.0 on an
           AMD 486DX4-120MHz w/ 16 MB of RAM
gimp.txt - This text description file

This idea was something I started modeling for this competition but couldn't
think of a situation/scene for it to be rendered in. I gave up and did spiff.jpg
and calvin.jpg. Then I returned and rendered it, thought that it was decent
despite the fact that it doesn't really depict any comic/cartoon character, and
decided to submit it.
        The robot was modelled in Imagine 3.0 and ALL image maps were made
using Adobe Photoshop 2.0 for Windows. The backdrop is a 640x480 black and white
wireframe rendering of the model with very little perspective with the bottom
being a blue->violet gradient tossed in via Photoshop. I then raytraced the
robot on the backdrop (the light source casts no shadow so the gun-arm doesn't
cast a shadow on the robot's torso). The text was added afterwards with Adobe
Photoshop.
        Sorry if the lower-left caption's language is out of place... I couldn't
think of any less offensive synonyms that sounded right (to me anyways).
        Anyways, I hope you enjoy - I think its rather humorous as do all of my
friends.
