I decided to go for the classic sword and sorcery, D & D fantasy setting.
Still to come - Footprints, a sword, a treasure pile, a more detailed cave
wall and the ocupant of the
cave.
The floor was an isosurface but I was taking over 6 hours to render in
512*384 so I converted
it to a height field. The pebbles and coins are placed using Jonathan
Ghiglia's clutter macro
The cave walls and columns are isosurfaces. The helmet was modelled in
rhino. The bones are
free models from the net (probably 3dcafe but I don't remember)
I need to do some more work on textures, specifically adding scorch marks to
the helmet and bones
Comments?

I like the floor, and the textures. The columns look almost like lathes.
Perhaps multiple light sources, or radiosity would improve the
illumination (the back of the cave is really hard to make out), but you
\were probably planning one of those anyway. Can't wait to see
the dragon :)

Yes, it looks promising.
The upper part could use some more fine structure and maybe some variation
of the texture.
And of course radiosity could add a nice touch, but it would probably make
things really slow.

Looks like a good start, but the thing that struck me was that the walls/cave
texture looks way too smooth and kind of stereotypical.
Yea the bones need more yellow, looks like someone's just got them out of an
air conditioned storage/preservation unit.

Thanks

Isosurfaces based on a surface of revolution of a parabola. Maybe I'll add a
bit
more large scale noise

Intentional. The only lighting is going to be from two lamps behind the
camera.

IMO the columns should be more like the floor; less saturated, less
contrast, and a bit rougher. If you want them to look more 'natural'.
Those bones in the foreground are cool. They'd work perfectly with some
focal blur when you get to the final stages of production.

I agree about the bones, they should be separated and laying flat in the sand
shouldn't they?

<g> probably because I've never been in a cave. I did some work on the walls
over
the weekend but didn't get anything that looked good. I'll have another go
when I've got
some idea what a cave looks like.

Will do. Placement's also off. Bones should be mostly buried

I'm considering using radiosity. Speed should be bearable, currently the
scene takes
about 45 min in 800*600

It looks promising, but I want to add that the arm shouldn't be that clean,
unless the baby dragons have simply discarded a toothpick.
