RENDERER USED: 
    Realsoft3d 5.1 beta for Linux

    Realsoft, xfrog for the flowers

RENDER TIME: 
    6 hours

HARDWARE USED:

IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


Black sheep white wool, white sheep black wool, opposite sides of the fence. One
might be a ram, I suppose, but I don't really know.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


Wool and wire are nurbs curves.  Wool density is increased with Realsoft's
"interpolators".  Textures are procedural except for the wooden fence.  Each
strand of wool has a displacement texture so close up they look like spun wool.
 It doesn't make much difference at this resolution and just pushed the render
time from 10 mins to 6 hours.  The original composition was going to be much
closer in to the faces.

Sunlight plus dome light for fill.  Tried Global Illumination but it made
everything look like poo.  So I turned it off and added some Depth of Field to
soften the background.

Flowers made in xfrog with scanned textures.
