TITLE: Marbles NAME: Mike Riley COUNTRY: USA EMAIL: michael.d.riley@cummins.com TOPIC: Glass COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: marbles.jpg RENDERER USED: POV-Ray 3.01 TOOLS USED: POV, WC2POV, RHINO RENDER TIME: HARDWARE USED: IBM Thinkpad P100 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A game of marbles being played on blacktop. A chalk line has been drawn for the boundary. A crack in the pavement has allowed a weed to sprout through. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I created the marble textures by using some of the included textures, modifying them and making up my own. I used a paint program to make the chalk line and image mapped it onto the pavement. The marbles were placed by hand. About half way through developing this image, I heard about RHINO on the newsgroup. It is awesome. After playing with it for a few hours, I came up with the weed in the dirt. Until next time, -Mike Riley
