Software used: Strata 3D Plus 3.5: modeling and render Ulead PhotomImpact 6: floor tile design and creation/export, post processingof final 3D render for contrast, darkening back areas of floor, addition of logo, and optimized export of .jpg file for uploading. I've had Strata 3D for a couple of years now... I am only now seriously using it for rendering 3D scenes. It has a very powerful (and fast) rendering engine, and a very easy to use GUI. And the results, well, when paid attention to, can be VERY realistic, as you can see in the above simple image. While much of my modeling may be done outside of it, (due to CAD-type accuracy/precision modeling needs), this may be the optimal 3D package for me to use for final renderings; I'll have to see.. more experiments to come!
