Not a very interesting scene, but I kind of like the soft lighting and the
colour scheme.
Was originally intended as a quick test of outdoor diffuse lighting (radiosity
only, no light_sources here). However, it turned into one of my longest renders
ever - in excess of 70 hours for the original image @ 800x600 & AA 0.1. The main
culprit was the isosurface ground - large, highly convoluted isosurfaces and
radiosity are a dangerous mix.
For certain reasons, the version you see here is a remake, reusing radiosity
data from the original render (about 600MB). This "only" took 10 hours on my
new system (Duron 650 @ 880MHz, baby!). Unfortunately some defects were
introduced in the process, but they shouldn't be too conspicuous.
BTW. I know I could've gotten 99% of the result in 1% the time. But you see,
I am a bit... unreasonable at times.
