My entry for this month's IRTC. Isosurface for the big asteroid, a blob
macro for the field of asteroids. Thanks go to others for blob people,
galaxy and the Stardestroyer.
Do you recognise where the composition comes from?

A Pogues album ? I can recognize Shane MacGowan behind the mask.
Just kidding. It's Gericault's "The raft of the Medusa".
Note : these people ate each other. You could have some spare parts
floating around.
And an antenna for the mast.
Good work.

Who's teeth, by co-incidence, can be modelled with the same isosurface I
used for the asteroid (the pigment would need darkening)..... A great album
btw.

Well, I guess given their lousy aim, storm-troopers might be stupid enough
to take off their helmets for a meal..... ;)

It looks like the front two guys are merged or something.

Uh, no, I don't.
This is a very neat thing, I thought at first they were throwing a paper
airplane though. I think they would need to be looking much more straight
back than this.

There's a famous painting. Some men on a raft, a ship at the horizon.
Is it Turner? Or has it been a french painter?

!? - I'd be suprised if such a restriction exists, AFAIK it would certainly
be a first for the IRTC to set such a rule on a theme.
To my mind "wilderness" is a subjective term anyway. A wilderness needs an
observer, either in the scene (the stormtroopers), or the viewer of the
picture (you), or both.
An ocean, a forest - these are things that exist whether we look at them or
not. "Wilderness" is much more to do with our perception of something,
rather than any underlying physical attribute of the thing itself. It is an
expression of our attitude towards a place, rather than a place of itself
(IMHO).

The restriction does exist. Sorry, I looked a couple of days ago at the IRTC
page and started looked at the pics and stuff (can we lynch Gillis?) and the
new subject stuff.
