About 20 to 30 years ago, it seems that some students started to build a
scaled down reproduction of the Ark by following the description from
the bible.
BEFORE it was finished, they where forced to stop. It apparently
accumulated/generated some rather dangerous electric potential.

This would look great with steam-punk textures :)

Now, that is what I would call an /Urban Legend/ ;-)

apparently there isn't one ... just pulled (only a little) one of the
control rods on the reactor.

Wooow!
could you just top the exit of the smoke/steam with some
recorder/whistle: not for the sound, but to justify the visual split in
3 of the stream (which is just perfect). So far it's look like an open
pipe, and there is no reason for such steam out of an open pipe.
Next slow down: area light to soften the shadow on the grey wall. :-)

AOI is doing very fine on this machine.

Steam is just a 1st stab at something at something coming out the
exhaust pipe ... according to the description it could be either steam
or a flame. Leaning towards steam, but hey that could change.

made a 1st pass try with area lighting but the scattering media in steam
slowed it waaaaay down. thinking about a slightly reflective backdrop to
try to get a view of the back of the machine.

actually I used irid ... played around with wave length in globals, then
thickness in the finish side. i /really/ like irid on metal finishes

after running for a couple of days, everything green turned blue, then
the exhaust changed to a more dense fog-like substance that sank to the
floor

Great image, I like this machine.
