Description

With the introduction of Viagra and the expected fall in the market for Rhino horns as a aphrodisiac, i have little doubt that in 20-30 years the Rhino population will have boomed so much that they'll clog our city alleys as stray cats and rats do now.

LOL...nice concept. I hate when rhino's eat my trash. :) Very nice beginning. Maybe get a nice rhino texture for them next? Good job.

To get a texture, catch a rhino, skin it and scan the skin. Other solution, you can go to the zoo and take pictures of rhinos and then assemble bits of them in a 2d programme. Otherwise, I think I remember there are nice profiles of rhinos in the texture samples of 3dsmax. Note that you can also do very good rhino textures with bits of elephant or turtle textures, with a bit of patience.

I'd go to Google and do an Image search on Rhino. That is probably the easiest way to get a basic pic of one. Then I'd use the clone brush in Paint Shop Pro to paint the texture. But that's just me. I'm really pretty bad at textures myself. It's a great picture, by the way. jon

Like this, I really dig the idea. Scenery is nice too, and ways you used lights are clever. More pics like this.
