TITLE: This is not the corridor I was looking for! NAME: Timothy B. Eyring COUNTRY: USA EMAIL: teyring@unm.edu TOPIC: Magic COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: drow9.jpg RENDERER USED: trueSpace SE RENDER TIME: about 6 hours when raytracing, a few minutes when just rendering HARDWARE USED: Cyrix P150+ IMAGE DESCRIPTION: This image was inspired by a long campaign in a D&D game I have been playing in for the last 5 or 6 years. At one point we cleaned out a necropolis with 15 to 20 thousand undead inside! we destroyed thousands of skelital Drow warriors similar to the one pictured. A few things are missing, the small details that identify the orriginal person as a Drow, but I just didn't have the time to build models of the appropriate jewlery and markings. I still like the image though! DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I pieced together several pieces of skeleton models I found at various times and places on the internet. After I had a passable skeliton, I started to work on the armor and sword. The sword was easy, just an extruded polygon with some toruses making up the hilt. The armor was more difficult. I extruded, twisted, and scaled polygons to form the plates. I then extruded cylinders around the edges to form a worked edge. The prepared spell is a completely clear sphere with a "fire" environment wrapped around it. There isn't much else to it, just weeks of tweaking joints, armor plates, lighting, etc. The scene file was 2MB in size, so I did not include it.
