TITLE: Parthenon COUNTRY: RUSSIA WEBPAGE: RENDERER USED: Povray 3.0 TOOLS USED: text editor RENDER TIME: 46 minutes 07 seconds HARDWARE USED: Pentium 166 IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Many years my wife and me have dreamed to touch legendary stones of ancient Greece. Last year we were in Greece and were impressed by Parthenon. We try to use all available for us information to create Parthenon model. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: At first we collect all availiable information about Parthenon's reconstruction. Model was based on averaging several plans of Pathenon from different sources. Textures was created from many drafts of Parthenon reconstruction and from our imagination where reconstruction wasn't available. Stone texture (modified) was used from Povray library.
