Sunlit Hallway

Image Information: 1280 x 960. Another Terragen sky with Cinema4D overlay, with volumetric lighting, full reflection and refraction, and Best antialiasing and Hard shadows on. The total render time was 4 hours 37 minutes.
Artistic Information: Having forgotten how long volumetric sunbeams add to render time, I had another go at doing them... and learned again that I need to upgrade my hardware! So pleeeze
hire me to design your website so I can! :) The windows were the most difficult part of this image, and were modelled using a new technique I developed to counteract the difficulty of modelling concave curved objects using primitives; a Lathe Nurbs was used to create the window surrounds, and the Create Polygon tool was used to connect the edges of the Lathe object to four corner points. This resulted in 90% fewer polygons than using the Boolean Cut tool to carve the window shape out of a cube object! I also did some more work on facial expressions, creating an argumentative look for Kailin and a nonplussed one for Jhareth.
Picture Story: Just a minor difference of opinion between Kailin and Jhareth - and can you tell Kailin's winning the argument?! :)
