TITLE: Underwater Robot NAME: Rick Heidebrecht COUNTRY: Canada EMAIL: rickh@net2u.com TOPIC: Sea COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: robot.jpg RENDERER USED: Imagine 4.0 TOOLS USED: Imagnine 4.0, Microsoft Photo Editor, Pictureman RENDER TIME: about 30 hours HARDWARE USED: 200 mhz Pentium, 466 mhz Celeron IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I started off building the robot model for this picture shortly after deciding on what I was going to do for this months contest. After spending a lot of time working on just the model itself, I realized that the deadline was coming up, and I didn't really have any kind of underwater scene set up yet that I could put this thing into. It would have seemed a waste to have put all the time into the model and then not have a picture to show for it, so I quickly staged and rendered it. Theres not much going on, but I hope you at least like the way the robot turned out. Also, the orginal image was actually in colour, but I much prefer the black and white image here. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: All modeling and rendering was done in Imagine 4.0, with black and white conversion done in Pictureman, and some image cropping done in Photo Editor.
