TITLE: A Span of Time NAME: Stephen Lumini COUNTRY: Canada EMAIL: slumini@hotmail.com WEBPAGE: N/A TOPIC: Architecture COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: aspanoft.jpg RENDERER USED: 3DS Max RENDER TIME: ~20 minutes IMAGE DESCRIPTION: One of the coolest things is how architecture can last through the ages, so my idea was to show the time span of an building - but then the word span got me thinking of bridges and such and so I made an aquaduct. I try to show three stages - construction, general use, and abandonment. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The stone blocks are essentially modifed chamber boxes The grass is simply 8 different meshes scattered across the "ground" The donkey is actually a modified Poser Horse mesh
