Making Of |
- Modelling
- CSG and meshes created with Wings3D or taken from
free internet ressources.
- Texturing
- Mostly procedural textures, often multi-layered, and
sometimes mixed with bitmap mapping.
- Lighting
- Several coloured arealights (one below the trees,
some green at the pump's base, and a 'filler' one).
Look into the 'source' files I provided, you will find
a series of images which a worth a thousand words about
the making of this image.
IMPORTANT : the image is best viewed with a monitor gamma
of about 2.8. For detailed instructions about how to set
your monitor gamma, check POV-Ray documentation for "gamma".

Judges Comments |
With Victoria's world, it's the most imaginative picture of the whole lot, with interesting, detailed modelling (the detail views are great)
It lacks focus in composition: there's so much stuff that it's hard to see what's going on.
Really captured a "fantasy" feel very well. Great attention to detail, perhaps a bit too busy which
made it difficult to find a focus point for the image. Some great ideas nonetheless.
