EMAIL: hobbes-kuscheltiger@gmx.at NAME: Florian Siegmund TOPIC: Architecture COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. TITLE: Futuristic Tower COUNTRY: Austria RENDERER USED: Pov-Ray for Windows v3.5 TOOLS USED: FotoCanvas v2.0 RENDER TIME: about 20 hours HARDWARE USED: Pentium 400 MHz IMAGE DESCRIPTION: This is an example of futuristic Architecture - a metal tower, bridges and modern types of street lamps. In the background there's a cloud covered sky. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: At first I modeled the basic shapes of the tower in Pov-Ray (I used loops and random numbers to place them), then I added the details (the bridges, the antennas at the top and the greenish lights). For the chains I used the file chain11.inc by Rob Antonishen. The sky was rendered in a different file (i used a spherical camera) and then modified only in its contrast and its brightness. At last I used FotoCanvas to convert the image to jpeg.
