IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
        This is a picture of a very bulky flying saucer called egghead!
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
        I created this image without any external modellers, just entering
        text into the editor. My aim was to create a strong image, but not
        necessarily a detailed one. The result was many drawings on paper
        which were then measured out and input into the editor. I didn't
        have time to explore textures or use high sampling rates for the
        atmosphere. However, I did consider how it might be animated, and
        one of the settings in the .INI file has some sample values. Feel
        free to experiment, but I would suggest doing so without the
        atmospheric effects as these take a long time to render.
