Trianglez, the piramids of central America


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The scene was entirely built in 3DstudioMax, even the landscape
and trees. The leaves are done by facetexturing an opacity map
so the sides of the leaves are softened making the scene more realistic.
The background image is mixed with a masked sun, so the sun can be set
anywhere on screen. the sun was softened by a fadin Lens Effect Flare
rendered in Video post.
