TV from beginning of the second half of XX century. I think, that televion one of the most wonderful inventions of the humankind, but at same time it is the greatest evil, because people waste all their time in front it! May be need to create a monument of TV? DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: This image was created (all parts, except glass) with KPovModeller. Oh, I am forgot! I must give notice, that TV in this scene is not copy of any REAL TV, so, I don't violate any design copyrights. Be calmness folk! :) So, how this image was created? OK, there is some explanation. All objects are simple CSG except paper which is nurbs patch. Television tube has some thickness because external surface has trasparency value. In the final image was added some media for light scattering. Heh, wallpaper on the wall, is image - photo of the real wallpaper. Grid at front panel of TV modelled with script, written inline in KPovModeller. Sources of KPovModeller project and all textures you can find in supplied zip archive. That all folk! Enjoy, be happy!
