JPGFILE: pinbpic.jpg RENDERER USED: Pov-Ray TOOLS USED: 3ds Max, Moray RENDER TIME: 6 hours HARDWARE USED: Pent 11 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Pin Ball city is a picture about me playing pinball games as a kid, and watching the chrome reflective ball bounce around the electronic city it was contained in.The place we played was called pinball city, it was filled with the sounds of laughter, electronic lights and sounds, and the sound of slapping the side of the machine to help the ball out a bit, but not hard enough to cause the machine to go into tilt mode... Kids today who play all those electronic games just do not know what they missed out on.... DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The image was modeled in 3ds max, and Moray, Rendered with Pov-Ray using soft shadows and radiosity, and was a lot of fun to build...all the buildings were created one at a time with primatives and compound objects, with city type image maps applied to the surfaces, as well as matching bump maps
