    About 15 minutes

IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Two trains, out in the middle of nowhere, headed on a collison course. How did
this catastrophe happen? Who's fault is it?

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

I spent most of my time modelling the trains in Rhino. Since I only have access
to my shool's computer lab for about five hours a week, I didn't have time to
make them as detailed as I had hoped. After making the trains, I imported them
into Bryce and put them on the tracks. I made the mountain in the background
and uploaded the texture for the gravel under the tracks. Lastly I added the
smoke and positioned the camera angle. I unfortunately didn't have as much time
as I would have liked to do all the scene set-up in Bryce.
