Image Information: 1280 x 960. This is a multistage render utilising both Cinema4D and Terragen. The landscape backdrop was heightmapped
in Photoshop using the same map as "Journey To Askhenderan" and rendered in Terragen. The city model from the same image was reused
here to create the building background. Then the dome structure was modelled and the characters, gemstones and furniture placed and
rendered in Cinema4D. Total remnder time was 28 minutes for the Terragen backdrop, plus 3 hours 15 minutes for the Cinema4D component.
Artistic Information: More work with kinematics, ligthing and refraction techniques. The gemstones are all kindly made available free
of charge by 3DLapidary.com and thanks must go to their contributors for
supplying these models and useful tutorials in using them in 3D software.
Picture Story: Kailin (centre) and her sister Taliya (left), estranged for years, find common ground through their mutual interest in
gemwork. Kailin and Jhareth's daughter Amhara looks on, while Jhareth and the girls' grandfather Talisen have a discussion in the background.
