TITLE: Le Forum NAME: MARCOTTE Thomas COUNTRY: FranceRENDERED USED: BMRT 2.3.6 WinNT EMAIL: alexpe@unforgettable.com TOPIC: History COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: forummar.jpg TOOLS USED: AMAPI, PaintShopPro RENDER TIME: 4h 30min HARDWARE USED: Cyrix P150+, 80 Mo RAM. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I started with creating all objects in Amapi, my scene only includes simple objects : about 2000 boxes, spheres and cylinders, trees had been imported from 3DS files I found in a magazine. Then I have exported the scene to RIB for rendering with BMRT. Modeling took me about 10 hours. Next I have created the statue texture, all the statues are boxes with an opacity texture that I have made with PaintShopPro (all my texture maps come from PaintShopPro). For the marble texture of the walls I have created a composite Renderman shader using the vanilla marble shader and a noisy shader to give a dirty look to walls, ground and columns.
