JPGFILE: backdoor.jpg RENDERER USED: Cinema 4D XL 8.1 TOOLS USED: Paint Shop Pro (JPEG conversion), Hair Department (a C4D plug-in) RENDER TIME: about 1 h 40 min with radiosity HARDWARE USED: ATHLON 900 Mhz, 256 SDRAM IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Heaven...But there is a backdoor, a way to reach the Hell...Between the Heaven and the Hell, the border is thin... DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Nothing very complicated in this still. I used lots of extruded spline for the door. I placed two volumetrics light for the 'atmosphere' of the hell. For the grass, i used a plug-in called 'Hair department'. I want to thank his author, Stefan BAUER. For the stone i used a displacement map, and a texture that i generated with POV-Ray. Cinema 4D is a really cool software, made by a cool team (like the POV team), so please have a look to his web site : www.maxon.net. Thanks for all !
