IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
This is an idea that literally developed as i was making it. Trying to keep to the surrealism topic, it turned into a very odd scene indeed - a submarine chase. Its designed to be a fairly simple scene that is surreal but still pleasing to look at. (Hopefully i have achieved this!)
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
Started off with a few spheres in 3ds, then decided to make a vehicle. As I played around using box modelling to make it, eventually it ended up as a submarine. I made a larger, more spiky and scary looking one that would be in pursuit of the smaller sub. I photosourced the textures off a wide variety of surfaces then spent some time making the surfaces look more interesting in 3ds. After that i was left with the simple task of rendering.
