No, not the aliens.  The ships!  I've been wanting to do this for some
time, and I think the semifinished model compares very favorably with
the model used on the actual shows and movies.
(http://www.west.net/~brandonm/worlds.htm)
Anywaaay, this model uses the trace() function extensively.  When I say
extensively, I really, really, mean it.  I also used the new blob
pattern to selectively, well, select areas on the surface to texture.
And, yes, I did use the base texture from my Cruiser pic.
Took about a half hour to hour per pic to render.  Spent about 3 days on
the modeling and texturing.
Comments? Suggestions? Jobs? :)
