Description

A lone ship races against the elements above a hostile,frozen planet as a huge blizzard bears down on it. Another experiment with atmospherics...the terrain is a preset texture combined with a rocky photo-texture from cgtextures.com,using a slope procedural to blend the two.Lighting is a customized preset,storm clouds are a cloud volumetric preset with minor tweaking to density and specularity.Ship is a model from previous images that I created in Bryce 6.1. Thanks for viewing and any comments you wish to leave!

Quite an impressive storm front you have created, Neil. That large mass of cloud formations sweeping over the planet surface is full of energy and well done.
