There are multiples interpretations of the theme here. First is the drive-in thing. The movie has not yet begun, and they're showing a "road runner" episode to help us wait. Another film has just ended on another screen. Overall ambience of the scene is inspired by SF movies (not a particular one). There is also some architectural inclination. Many would say : "why it's all green ?"; pollution !! note : the "road runner" image is also submitted as "meep.jpg". DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Environnement is set by : -sky sphere (real sphere) with a layered texture -multiple fogs (layered and regular) -ground checkered plane (can't get rid of these !) -ground rectangular grid -two light sources There are 10 differents buildings, some are repeated 2 or 3 times. 3 of them were pre-build (by me !), but all textures (and some parts) were changed to match the black-gold-light... palette of the image. 2 of them are based on well-known architectures. There are 2 different flying objects : the dragonfly and the carp. The dragonfly is from my previous objects, the carp is new. Everything in the scene is hand-made CSG. I gave a slight tilt (sky <0,0,.2>) to the camera, to obtain a slightly inclined view, suggesting that WE are riding in a ship.
