IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

  My Seiko watch on marble display stand with price tag.  (I changed the name
to Sicko for fun, as well as to avoid any potential hassles from copyright 
infringments.)

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

  This image was created almost completely by hand and from scratch using the 
built-in shapes of Polyray and its CSG functions.  The only exceptions are
the crystal dome over the watch's face-plate and the gold rim or bezel around
the face-plate, which were created as sweep objects using PovCad 4.0.  The 
words "Sicko" (used on the watch and the price tag) and "Quartz," "SAT 8" and
"$189" were glyphs created from various TrueType fonts using the TTFX utility
which came with Polyray.  After rendering the image to a Targa file using 
Polyray 1.8, the title and copyright were added using Microsoft Paint for 
Windows 95, then converted to JPEG format using Adobe Paintshop.  The Polyray 
source file ONSALE.PI was created and modified using QEdit 3.00B.  Some colors
and textures in the .INC files have been added either by me or by other
users of Polyray, but I've lost track of which, if any, new or modified colors
or textures were actually used in this image.
