Hi all, The other day, i've made that sun using some fog primitives and a sphere . I think that can be a good 15 min challenge, even though making my sun took me more time . And that would be an occasion for us to play with those volumetrics . So i'm waiting for yours ! litst litst.@freesbee.fr http://www.chez.com/litst/

13 min Izuel

Took 18 minutes.... Most of that was trying to line the prominence up.....

Would you believe... a black hole? Don't get to close to the even horizon, OK? --Terri

Uh, I meant "event horizon". Which may or may not be even; hard to tell.

Hehehehehe.... Kind of like the blank piece of paper being a polar bear with his eyes closed and his paws over his nose..... Cute!

Well, I did consider bs'ing a bit about all the work I went to getting the proper values of black right, but I figured you guys would see right through that. The truth is I spend my lunch hour today playing with litst's tutorial, and all my home-time has been spent trying to put something together for this month's "The Machine" challenge. (Much to the annoyance of my dog, who thinks I have better things to do -- anyone else have to deal with uppity canines nudging one's elbow while at the keyboard?) Maybe I can go be foggy tomorrow... I wonder if anyone will notice the difference...

Man! I take a weeks vacation and come back and see that everyones doing 15 min challanges again! Heres my entry...9 of the 15 min was in rendering..there are a few changes I could make but hey..i'm doing this @ work..its fun time :)

Cool suns, guys ! And a great blackhole, Terri !!! Anybody have an idea for another challenge ? litst

Only takes fifteen minutes to make, but days for me to get around to posting...

Great idea, graylensman ! :) litst
