IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


The inspiration cames me up with the viewing of "le pacte des loups". 
There is a scene where the camera travels along monica's belluci body and where
the image fades gradually in a winter landscape according to monica's curves
:o).



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 



-Set-up the 3d prop in poser.
-Export made with poseray.
-Lighting is make of two spot lights (with area_light key-word) to reveal the
outlines of the model and to obtain a contrasted lighting. I used radiosity to
clear up the areas of shadow. 
-Shading makes with a great tip by Gilles tran, that consists to combine the
finish of the surface with a slope pattern, resulting bright areas along the
outlines.
