JPGFILE: ijs.jpg ZIPFILE: ijs.zip RENDERER USED: Povray 3.0 TOOLS: Moray 2.5, CorelDraw 4.0, Image Alchemy 1.8 RENDER TIME: 3 hr. 12 min. HARDWARE USED: Pentium 120 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A periscope is busy finding it's way in a semi-realistic scene where some kind of glassy snowflakes are falling down... Check out my homepage too. it isn't finished yet... DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I used Moray to create the periscope, Povray with a `crackle' texture to create the heigtfield (ijshfld.pov), CorelDraw for editing the heightfield and some other thingies. I also added `snowflakes' using Povray's #while directive, creating randomly a bunch of triangles. Some halo's were also used. Anyway, play around with those files included in `ijs.zip' (`ijs'=ice) and send an email if you like it, or just have to dump your thoughts about it ;-)
