When Bill started working on his new CGSphere image I went and perused the
CGSphere web site for the first time. I thought, "hey, this is right up my
alley" and couldn't resist trying one of my own.
I made the sphere in Wings3d; it's recycled from a scene I rendered last year.
It seemed to fit (but anyone who sees enough of my work will notice that I love
using "spheres" of one sort or another). After a ridiculous amount of render
time (due to the media smoke) here's my upcoming entry.
Have I mentioned lately that I love POV?
Cheers,

Impressive! The media is really adding a touch to this scene. Nice textures
too. I don't know. It doesn't need much more, does it?

I guess everyone is speachless, I am. You're outta everyone's league. You should
show them your magic, or me at least. Have I mentioned lately that I love your
skill?

Beautiful. Much more impressive than 90% of the CGSphere entries I've seen. The
textures are wonderfully realistic.

Thanks Alpha, but what magic are you referring to?

LOL, no photography! Well, there are some image_maps, one for the "skateboard

Render time well spent I would say. Really great, you're showing those
non-"other" CGSpherer's how its done.

Happy Monday all. After tweaking the media and the lighting and waiting 3+ days
for a render here's my final version.

I guess the magic of imagination Rob. (And the ability to use tools of
the trade to use that imagination). :)
