TITLE: Candles NAME: Glen Carter COUNTRY: USA EMAIL: tertle@mindspring.com TOPIC: Glass COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: candles.jpg RENDERER USED: Truespace2 TOOLS USED: Paintshop Pro, Photoshop, Truespace2 RENDER TIME: Approx. 4 hrs HARDWARE USED: Pentium 166 with 64 megs of ram DESCRIPTION: This is a different treatment of several object objects which I created for this competition. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I used Truespace2 for the modeling. All of the objects were created using primitives and extruded shapes. Object subtraction was used for the hollow objects ( wine glasses, candlestick bottoms, bud vase, etc.) I did a large number of test renderings before I got the glass textures that I wanted. On the candlesticks, I used a faceted texture (rather than smooth) to reveal the faces in the object for a more "crystal" appearance. I used a distinct wood texture for refraction through the various glass objects.
