One moment he had been fighting a dragoneen, the next he was standing on a platform amound tall glass and metal towers. He looked around, seeing nothing but tall towers and flying creatures. Metallic flying creatures with bright eyes and loud growls. A buzzing sound from above caught his attention and a beam on light stabbed down from above. Kealan turned and raised his sword, ready to fight whatever threat presented itself. --- "Captain, we've got a disturbance on Landing Platform 56." "Yes, sir. It appears to be man in medieval armour." "Yes sir, he has a sword." "Going to investigate now." DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I did the buildings first, they're all csg's primitives. The foreground character, character in walkway and backgound bikes were all done in poser andconverted to pov using poseray. The armour and sword the foreground character wears is my own work, modelled in Rhino, the rest is a variety of purchased and downloaded models. The cars were modelled in rhino, mapped in uvmapper and converted with poseray.
