JPGFILE: dessert.jpg RENDERER USED: POV-Ray for Windows v3.6 TOOLS USED: POV-Ray editor Wings3D RENDER TIME: 2h 42m 26s HARDWARE USED: Athlon XP 3000+ 2GB RAM IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Dessert! hahahahahahahaha! (sorry) DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Just a fairly simple bit of modelling in Wings3D. The texture for the icecream is just a spotted normal map with some nice reflection settings. The cone is the slowest rendering part of the scene: it's filled with media to acheive sub-surface scattering because it just looked wrong without it. Lighting is 3 point lighting, with no radiosity. I haven't provided the source since the mesh for the icecream is 5MB, which seems a bit pointless for such a simple scene. If you want the source for any bits of the scene e-mail me.
