Description
This one is a simple trick using the rendertree. One NURBS sphere with bump, specular and reflection maps, reflecting other surrounding spheres to give the impression of depth and rendered with the camera very very close to the surface. If you want to see the effect better, I recommend you to see it full-size.
One infinite light, Mitchell AA filter at 4x4 to keep the sharpness of the details, 20 minutes render at full res.
I was tinkering trying to do something completely different and I stumbled upon it. Got fascinated by the possibilities and explored them for hours. XSI is just a marvel ;)
Bump maps are all textures from "World Matters" DVD by SubDimension Studios.
Have a good day and thanks for passing by.
