JPGFILE: rainbow.jpg ZIPFILE: rainbow.zip RENDERER USED: Povray 3.02 TOOLS USED: Moray 3.01 RENDER TIME: 3 hours HARDWARE USED: Pentium II 266 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: When water and rays of light get together you get... a rainbow! DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Nice simple one. A sphere was manipulated in Moray to make it asymmetrical and a normal applied to make it a little bumpy. This was my raindrop. This was duplicated rotated and translated many times to create the shower of rain. The rainbow is a disc with a semi-transparent graduated texture on it - yes I know POV can do rainbows but it was easier using Moray to do it this way :-) All that was left was to add the ground (to be refracted in the drops), a sphere for the sky with some stormy clouds and some focal blur.
