#Steam Roller

Barrie-
I must say that I jumped the gun in telling you to get busy and upload, I found
your steam roller just a few minutes after I had sent that E-Mail. About the
image…I like it. I can tell you spent mucho time on modeling the fine
details. I can appreciate exact detail, I tend to over do detail at times
causing problems with time and memory. Very nice modeling. The plug in the
background is a nice touch as well as the baseboard molding. I just think it
is a great piece of modeling. Encore.

Darin,
Again, thanks for the complements. The plug you mentioned was added at a
later date as I felt that the picture of the little steam roller needed some
scale. Times where the zone render comes in handy eh !.
In terms of time/memory, it took an embarrassing 12 1/2 hours to render (640
X 512) and ate just under the 10 megs I have to render the whole scene – there
were times where I thought she just wasn't going to take it <g> -.
The most difficult and time consuming part was the spoked wheel created in
the spline editor. There are also some other very intersting shapes but I
won't go on and take up space.
As far as an Encore goes, I'll try 🙂
Best Regards, Barrie R Scott
