Description
Spent 20+ hours on this, working most of the day yesterday doing modeling and today finishing up the scene.
The tower was modeled in Wings3d, textured in Bryce with additional textures added in Photoshop with post. Alot of photos incorporated into the image, mostly with the clouds.
"...rising black, blacker and darker than the vast shades amid which it stood, the cruel pinnacles and iron crown of the topmost tower of Barad-d

Fantastic sky/ scene!
bravo bravo excellent work you captured the moment perfectly.
The toweris great and shows how much work you put into it. I really need to do something other than mdelling cubes in wings. It's the sky that is really impressing me. Fantasticly dramatic. Major Vote and then some.
It would be inappropriate to type what just came out of my mouth - good thing my kids were already in bed - it's that good - (just repeated myself)

Wonderful! Fantastic - as always! Now for the C&C's ;) I preferred the sky in the lower left pic in the forum thread http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?ForumID=107&Form.ShowMessage=1721499 I thought it was more brooding and menacing. I didn't think that the lightning added anything to the image.
Love it man! This is definitely poster material IMHO. 20 hours well spent indeed. Got my vote.
The sky has a feel that I can go right into it.Here's another vote!
