JPGFILE: arr1098.jpg ZIPFILE: arr1098.zip RENDERER USED: POV-Ray 3.02 TOOLS USED: Leveller 0.9952, Paint Shop Pro 4.12 RENDER TIME: 22h 21m 31s HARDWARE USED: Pentium-233, 32M IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A regular-route submarine is arriving at our underwater port. Two divers are walking around a moorage and one of them have managed to put on my diving-dress! DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: All objects in the scene are CSG, even the divers. The submarine (and whole scene too) was designed to have naive, "Utopian" exterior. The scene terrain (almost invisible) is a height_field made by Leveller. Every lamp contains a properly faded light source inside. Four 3x3 area spotlights illuminate the scene, simulating searchlights. The air bubbles, rejected by the submarine and the diver, are recursively defined structures of ellipsoids. The text objects are made with playbill.ttf. View this image in a dark place:)
