Well, models done by me in Rhino: the artifact, shuttle, bulb and device. The rest is Bryce. Textures by Animax, Mayang, NASA and Bryce. Absolutely no postwork. There's a bigger version in my gallery at the link.

I'm a horrid speller, but isn't mystery spelled wrong?

Not in the Beta Cygni system. :^)

Yeah, but the textures are great!! ;)

I think there is an older word version of "mystery" that can be spelled that way. Great modeling, especially the bulb with lighting.

Hang-on! A GASKET is a piece of material cut to shape that fits between to machined parts...ie: between the engine block and the cylinder head of a car engine......?

The spelling is done to fit with the cheap edition. You know, something that's good for a kid to put on his bedroom wall. Ditto for the universe with a capital U. As to the gasket, it is a piece of material cut to seal something, and somebody at the publisher thought that it would be a fitting name for this artifact. :-) But, no, really, it's all intentional, though I could correct the spelling if it bothers you.

Oh Bryster you old mechanic you, you can fix my car any time........8D (if I had a car that worked) The textures are really good and some great modelling especially the light bulb. Catlin

Very interesting in an Ed wood sort of way. Very good on the wood(no pun intended) textures, and as Catlin mentioned the lightbulb is great. A gasket could also be used to bind a sail to a yard or It could be a packing material of some sort according to my 1947 American College Dictionary published by Random House.

Why would you want someone to fix a car that worked?

Fractals will always amaze me!

My car does not move and is being picked up for scrap soon. But, as we all know, lots of annoying little problems crop up with cars and if someone could have fixed these little problems as they happened then I might still have a car that works. Catlin

Caltin: Sorry! I was trained as a Marine Engineer...Marine as in Maritime, so if somebody wants me to fix their Clarke-Sulzer RD90...no problem! However, I bet I could get YOUR motor running....... And Hey! Not so much of the OLD!
