Agrond the Red, Lord of Dragons, swoops low over Wizitch Castle. An eldritch magical glow issues from the wizards staff on the parapet below. Is he welcoming the Dragon or warding him off? Originally rendered at 2400x1500 this version is nearly half that size. It's rendered to file with trueSpace 7.6 WorkSpace Real Time DX9 renderer and features my new Castle (still a WIP at this stage), a few trees I made and a trial skydome arrangement. The skydome is comprised of 3 layers plus the starfield object. The outer layer is a sphere using Parva's Sky shader suitably adjusted for night time. The starfield object, also spherical in shape, sits just inside the sky dome and is textured using a constant shader to provide a suitably starry look.. Slightly smaller again is the cloud layer which has it's transparency controlled by an alpha shader and it's brightness by a constant shader.Marginally smaller again is the landscape sphere which is alpha masked to allow the sky to show. The cloud and landscape images are created from a panorama I made using Vue 6 Pro Studio. The dragon is my "Agrond the Red" character used in other recent works of mine. The picture is a little dark on my old CRT but looks great on my LCD screens. It may look a little dark if your monitor is not correctly calibrated. Not much else to say about this one other than ! hope it's of sufficient quality to inspire others to explore the potential of the real time view. The scene file for this image is massive - 128 Mb of detailed geometry and BIG texture maps. Even with Glow, Supersampling and AA all switched on it's possible to move around in this scene with almost no lag at all. As always, comments and crits and compliments always appreciated.
