Description
Two Bowhead fighterships zip in and around the desert landscape known as The Devil's Needles,large wind-blown spires of rock thrusting upwards from the desert floor in a haphazard pattern,a test for the pilots' skill as they manouever their ships at high speed.
Ships are modified versions of my Hammerhead ship,these being a larger and heavier armed craft.Ships were created in Bryce from prims,and tesxtured in three metal textures from www.cgtextures.com.Landscape is a custom design,with spire formations created from lattice terrains...all textured in a photo texture also from www.cgtextures.com.Sky is a customized preset,water is a standard preset rendered in 3d texture setting.Image is rendered at Premium setting with DOF selected.Thanks for viewing and all your previous comments!
