Description
A lone ship races against the elements above a hostile,frozen planet as a huge blizzard bears down on it.
Another experiment with atmospherics...the terrain is a preset texture combined with a rocky photo-texture from cgtextures.com,using a slope procedural to blend the two.Lighting is a customized preset,storm clouds are a cloud volumetric preset with minor tweaking to density and specularity.Ship is a model from previous images that I created in Bryce 6.1.
