TITLE: The Sorceror's Apprentice COUNTRY: USA WEBPAGE: http://dante.cwru.edu/~joshua/ RENDERER USED: Linux POV-Ray 3.01 TOOLS USED: none RENDER TIME: 56:02:09 HARDWARE USED: Intel Pentium Pro 200Mhz w/ 64MB RAM IMAGE DESCRIPTION: similar to scene from "sorceror's apprentice" in Fantasia DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I just used a text editor and a calculator to create the image. I beleive the scene from Fantasia features mops filling the tower with water, but brooms were so much easier to model :) The windows and the atmosphere were an afterthought that I thought looked really cool... The huge time it took to render (over 2 days on a 200Mhz P6) was due to the atmosphere effects in POV-Ray (which accounts for the dust in the air)
