TITLE: 2nd_Fort COUNTRY: CANADA WEBPAGE: RENDERER USED: Povray 3.1 TOOLS USED: Moray 3.1, Leveler Demo, sPatch, 3D Win, Paintshop Pro Demo Plant Studio RENDER TIME: 16 minutes HARDWARE USED: PentiumII 350Mhz, 196megs RAM IMAGE DESCRIPTION: This is my third IRTC solo entry and first time putting two entries into one competition. The image description and story line for "1st_fort" will explain background and history behind the creation of "2nd_Fort", as it is the same world and topic shot from a difference angle. Why did I do this????? The reason I have done this is to show off all the hard "behind the scenes work" that went into creating "1st_Fort". It's a close up of the fortifications and the soldiers who are stationed there. So for those who have always wondered "how did they do that", this is to show what is often behind the scenes in one of our "Hugh and Anne" join efforts and our solo efforts as well. I hope you enjoy it. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: For a description of how "2nd_Fort" was constructed, read the 1st_Fort.TXT file and then incorporate the following paragraphs. Upon deciding to do a "behind the scenes" view I spent another few days flying the camera around looking for the best close up that would sum up all the work visible in 1st_fort, But Also most important, meet the topic for the competition. The only things added were the cannon balls on their brass monkeys and the ribbed powder barrels behind the the gun crews. So to all you others, both judges and entrients, keep building those worlds and flying your camera's around them. Then build some more, fly somemore. Eventually you will find the shot that tells your storey. For those who have been constructive and also critical judges, our thanks for your guidance. This image is a reward to you hard judges who have always had hard job of judging our "artictic" looking works. I thought it was time for a rough and dirty close up. .. oh.... final thought!
