JPGFILE: mr_frog.jpg ZIPFILE: mr_frog.zip RENDERER USED: Povray 3.0 for windows TOOLS USED: Moray 3.0 for modeling and textures Photoshop for creating a heightfield-tga and gamma-correction. RENDER TIME: 2hour/57minutes/30seconds. HARDWARE USED: Pentium PC 90-Mhz with 32 MB ram ( and a espresso-machine ...:-) IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A frog sitting on a lilypad, surounded by landscape, water and vegetation. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: All the objects were created in Moray, because it's much easier to see how a final image will look. Moray has also a good texture-editor. First I made a .TGA file for the heightfield in PaintshopPro. This was converted to a heightfield in Moray. and then scaled and textured. Then the water was made, by adding waves to a plane. All the trees, flowers were made in seperate files and later added to the main-scene. Most objects are made of Bezier-curves. The POV-ray code was generated by Moray. Finally the scene was renderd in Povray.
