TITLE: Infected Mushroom NAME: Pavel Bykov COUNTRY: US EMAIL: slidersv@yahoo.com WEBPAGE: http://www.3dsart.com TOPIC: Fantasy and Mystic COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: imushrom.jpg RENDERER USED: 3DS MAX TOOLS USED: 3DS MAX RENDER TIME: 1min 10s HARDWARE USED: Athlon 1.2GHZ IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I decided to create an imaginary environment with some planets close together, and make mushroom a center of my animation. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: There are 3 planets close together. I took images of planets from NASA's website, and clouds are a second object with some transparancy. Lava is a noise map. Lots of objects has the glowing effect. Pretty simple. I thought it looks good overall.
