Description
This is a piece I started months ago and just couldn't find a good focal object. A few days ago I was getting Vue established in Panther (Mac OS X) and saw this old iron tractor among my 3-D objects and it just clicked. Add in my RustMats and it was exactly what I was looking for. It is not meant to be a re-creation of reality, but rather an artistic image to convey the feeling of a very harsh and barren (perhaps very cold) place, but with great beauty in spite of it's harshness.
Vue4 on a Mac; Minor contrast adjustment, no other postwork.
Textures by me

Very nice. I really like the way the birds draw my eyes to the smokestack on the tractor. The only thing I would suggest is to add a little light to the rear of the tractor. Other than that, a primo job!
Oh beautifully done, George! You've really mapped the train well. it looks fantastic!
Fine crisp render.

This abandoned place makes me pensive. Good idea and excecution. Very good texturing.
