Butterflies
Artwork created in 1997
- Renderer: POV-Ray
- The head and butterflies textures were hand-painted in Paint Shop Pro 4. The trick is
to render first the objects to paint using an orthographic projection. The textures are
painted on the resulting picture. Once completed, this picture is used as an image map :
because of the orthographic projection, the shapes of the image map and of the object
match exactly. Translating and scaling the image map still require a few run tests,
though. Note : this was before the days of uv-mapping...
