JPGFILE: jt_lone.jpg RENDERER USED: POV-Ray 3.5 TOOLS USED: POV-Ray 3.5 Poser 3 PoseRay 2.6 IrfanView (jpg conversion) RENDER TIME: ~2 hours HARDWARE USED: AMD-K6 350MHz, 192Mb, Windows98 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A girl waits for *that* phone call DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The room and most of the furniture, etc is pov sdl. Spiral staircase was made via a macro, which writes a (smooth) triangle mesh. The sofa was found on renderosity.com. The design of the room was based upon the _Sunroom_, which can be found at www.thejuice.co.uk. The grass and trees are Gilles Tran macros, www.oyonale.com. The abstracts on the back wall are by Dan Byers http://hometown.aol.com/goofygrafx. The phone is a slightly modified version of that found at the POV-Ray Objects Collection The various bits of poser clothing etc were found on the web. As always, I didn't start work on this until about 2 weeks ago and so it's not entirely finished. I've worked right up to the deadline - hence the low quality anti-aliasing and radiosity settings - the scene was rendered with radiosity_fast from rad_def.inc. There are some pretty nasty radiosity artifacts in the scene, especially above the doorways and behind the staircase. There is also quite a hansom attack of max_trace_level between the patio doors. Apologies for not including the source code but it's a worse mess than usual, but if you really want it, send an email
