TITLE: inn NAME: Daniel Pagan Connell COUNTRY: New Zealand EMAIL: pagan.art@xtra.co.nz TOPIC: Unbeleivable COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION JPGFILE: inn.jpg RENDERER USED: Povray TOOLS USED: Rhino3d, Moray texture editor RENDER TIME: About a day. HARDWARE USED: AMD k6 266 3d enh with 32 megs. IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The leaders of the Blood Finger and Wolf's Tooth clans meet to arrange the capture of hobbits. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Modeled in Rhino, the main orc took me over three hundred hours to complete and pose, but that would have been about two thirds less if I'd been using a decent computer. I submitted him as part of an entry to last month's irtc, but I wasn't happy with the scene so I completely redid it. I thought that to make the image as photo-realistic as possible I should go to a ridiculous amount of detail, but it didn't quite work and I don't find it very aesthetically pleasing. I learnt a lot doing it though, most of which is redundant now that I've started using 3ds max for posing.
