IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
My image is a sourcerers staff projecting images of planets out from the gem in the centre
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
I made the staff itself out of Nurbs tubes by extracting the points. The "flame" was made using a plane with a spark like texture parented to a particle emitter and dupliverts turned on to give a more rounded look, the particles were deformed by a lattice. The planets were icospheres with a halo texture and the light reaching out to them is a spotlight withe halo turned on.
