TITLE: Party is over COUNTRY: USA WEBPAGE: not at this time RENDERER USED: POVRAY 3.0 TOOLS USED: Autocad LT, DXF2POV, POVRAY, Photofinish RENDER TIME: 56 minutes HARDWARE USED: Pentium-100 w/64 megs memory IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I spent a long time thinking about glass and how it is used on a daily basis. Then I came up with the idea, Party is Over. The room design is similar to the one that my friend had his wedding reception in. While creating the design I thought of having people standing around the punch bowl, but that would subtract from the surrounding stained glass windows and punch bowl. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The image was first sketched out on paper very roughly. Then I started the computer and created several different designs for the center piece punch bowl using Autocad LT until I settled on the one used. All the cups table and window designs were created in Autocad LT them converted to POVRAY source using DXF2POV a great utility. All the textures outside of the staind glass were altered existing POVRAY textures. The Stained Glass textures were created in a paint program and them saved at thirty five percent opaque which gives them a see though value. Oh yeah the paint program is Photofinish. Several re-renders to get things right along with hours and hours of creation time.
