Description

This is my first Bryce Render in about 7 months. I made the decision to stay away from CG while I was recovering from my second cornea transplant. I thought I'd do a render of what I remember of route 66 a road I traveled as a youngster with my parents. Anyway this is my impression of the old road. All the modeling was done in Bryce except for the cars, Schrurbies and Viewpoint. Thanks for Viewing.

I can remember when things looked like this and the world was much more innocent. Thanks, and I hope you have a speedy recovery and a wonderful Christmas holiday!

Thanks for the comments! I don't even know what IBL is guess I'll have to research it. I went from CA to TX on route 66 a few times, between the ages of 6 and 12.

Wonderful scene- I can remember spending days going from the midwest to Arizona on this road.

We must be in Arizona or New Mexico as I see mountains off a ways. I travelled route 66 in May of 1965 to my first real job. The easy snarl of a Corvette pulled me along. I no longer had a hobby or an unwanted old car. Now I had a way of life.

Exellent pic! I never got a chance to travel this route in its heyday, but I have seen a lot of pics from the net and I loved the show "Route 66" as a kid. Very well detailed!
