| | | | | Wow! Really nice picture! Did you use focal blur to make the hills unsharp? One thing though: How come the lego bricks aren't reflecting the stars (and each other)? Or maybe they do, but I can't see it. --Tobias (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | I made a movie once, with a Futuron guy flying on a spaceship over a classic space landscape -entirely in POV-ray. (The movie got lost when my HD crashed, so I can't show it to you.) The hills were easy to make; use a heightfield! If you don't know (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space, lugnet.publish, lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | | | (...) Bummer. (...) I have used heightfields several times, but I can never get them to look exactly as I want them too. I wanted hills that really looked like the CS hills in this case.

|
| | | | | Oh, BTW -- it's playing with fire to try to pick "realistic" set numbers unless you know the product line REALLY well. A set the size of the one you made would not have a number like 6888, but would have a number like 6924, 6936, or 6945. Put that (...) (24 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) I take it that my model is too big to have a 688x number? Well, 6888 was the number I used for my Pentapterigoid fighter, so rather than looking up more numbers, I just used that. So I should try to remember that 6922, 6924, 6934-7, and 6944-8 (...) (24 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)
