IMAGE DESCRIPTION: This is a creature from my alternative evolution series. It is entitled the Chaos Repulsor and was born on a distant planet under the influence of The GREAT OLD ONES. The Great Old Ones wanted a creature that could spread negative chaos waves at neighbouring planets so that the occupents would become increasingly insane and make it easy for the great old ones to control these occupents. The Goal of thes GOO's was to conquer their old warring ground the planet EARTH! The Chaos Repulsor has visited earth once before - 2000 years ago in fact, and is making a return visit where it's powers are a million times stronger. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I wanted to create a creature which had eyeballs curled within itself, and after many failed experiments with FORM, I finally stumbled on this one. The halo is an experiment in colours and multicoloured halos. The background sky is one of my wood texture map creations that I am rather proud of. I have included the source code - please note textures.inc will overwrite any old textures.inc so I advise backing up.
