TITLE:Apple Fall COUNTRY:USA WEBPAGE:www.redmuddesign.com RENDERER USED:MentalRay TOOLS USED:SoftimageXSI, CorelDraw, PhotoShop RENDER TIME:~1 hour HARDWARE USED: 3200 AMD 64, 1 Gig RAM, 128M GeForce FX 5200 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Worm in shock as his home(the apple) drops off the tree. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I took a photo of an apple and used photoshop to turn it into a texture for the apple. The apple is just a warped a sphere. The leaf is a plane with a texture on it. The texture was grabed from a photo and altered in photoshop. The tree branches are just bent cylinders with a texture. The background is a photo blurred. MentalRay did the motion blur. The worm is a group of spheres with the top sphere turned into a head with hair.
