     IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
     This Pic is taken from my "Bloodspider"-cycle- I startet that projekt , because i wantet to proove the possibity of rendering good looking spider-webs without the plugins of an SGI-Renderer. It tokk many time to creat a lealistic webtexture and i investet much passion in finding the best lightatmosphere. I rendered some verry realistic spider-animations too! 
ALL textures and ALL Mesh-sources where createt totaly by myself!
Enjoy it and axcuse my bad english...
