TITLE: Break Time

IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Break Time pictures me at my computer taking a break, to admire(?) my latest raytracing, feet propped up & reaching for the ever-present coke. At first I wasn't sure what would end up on the computer screen. But, after a few jillion test renders to get the keyboard, feet, etc to look right, it became pretty obvious that what I needed a break from was "Break Time". So, it ended up on the screen. If you look closely, you can see the earlier versions on the screens within the screen.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
All of the objects included in this scene were modelled in Moray 2.0, with all except the shoe shape being constructed from basic shapes (cubes, cylinders, cones & spheres). The shoe shape is a bezier patch.

Several image maps were used as textures. The pretty little girl in the picture is from a photo I took of my oldest granddaughter about a year ago. The computer keys use black on white text GIFs as textures and the PBLogo & shoelaces were drawn in PaintShop Pro. Other textures were created in Moray and modified by hand.
