TITLE: "Fishes" NAME: Victor Widell COUNTRY: Sweden EMAIL: sveninge@car-van.se TOPIC: Nature COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: fishes.jpg RENDERER USED: povray 3.1 TOOLS USED: Moray, Photo Styler and Notepad. RENDER TIME: 34 minutes HARDWARE USED: My dad's Pentium 200. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: When I saw the new topic on your fantastic webpage, I started to figure out what I wanted to do. I realised that my favorit nature is the world you can find below the watersurface, so i used Moray to create a beizer patch witch looked like a fish. Then i painted a quite nice imagemap for it. The next step was to add an interesting landscape. I used Moray to place the fishes, the heightfield, the water, the lights, the camera, create the textures and to add some fog. The scene wasn't very interesting yet, so I added some pillars to make it look a bit more like some kind of Atlantis. Finaly I rendered it in 1600 * 1200 pixels before I scaled it down to the right size to avoid thorny edges, and converted it to JPEG format.
