TITLE: Wish I were there... NAME: Pascal Olice COUNTRY: France EMAIL: p.olice@free.fr TOPIC: Sea COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: scene.jpg RENDERER USED: Vue d'Esprit TOOLS USED: Rhino, Poser, Vue d'Esprit, Paint Shop Pro RENDER TIME: 1 15 HARDWARE USED: PIII 800MHz IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I live in a busy city, and often dream of far-off islands with lovely creatures longing for me... DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: All objects on this scene except the vegetation and the girl were modelled with Rhino. I used Vue d'Esprit for modelling the veg., and for rendering the whole scene. The water is a height field. The towel is a height field bent in Rhino (that was difficult due to polygon count). The lovely creature comes from Poser. The final scene contains about 1.5m polygons (which is too many for comfort, I'll be more careful next time!) and takes about one hour to render (800x530) on an 800Mhz PIII with 256Mb RAM.
