Meteoric Shipyards
Until further notice (probably never) Meteoric Ship Yards, a division of
Meteoric Mining, has suspended production on the Marathon Class and Runner
Class of Jump 5 starships. If you still want to see the original ad
for the Runner class, look here.
Meanwhile, this page will be used to showcase pictures I have created usingP
the free 3D rendering program POV-Ray .
Some of these pictures have appeared as wallpaper on my computers, and are
created at either 800x600 pixels or 1280x1024 pixels (the sizes of my home
display and my work display, respectively).
Feel free to use these pictures in noncommercial applications.
Traveler Starships over planet 1280 x 1024
A church 800x600
The Albatross (From the Vincent Price movie Master of the World, from
the Jules Verne novel Clipper of the Clouds)
And other picture of it: Low over a garden.
The Valley Forge, from the movie Silent Running
1280x1024 version and
800x600 version
(and an image of the movie model)
And here's a movie made of the three ships flying by the camera. (Warning: about 5 M)
And a 3 M close flyby of one of the ships.)
The Crypt
A Forest
The following scene was created for a "Shortest code contest."
It was created with less than 500 characters.
Another Forest
Miscelanious pictures, not used as backgrounds
Runner class freighter.
An idea for a story I'd like to write -- a steampunk airship flying over a garden.
Another scene from my story (not written yet) -- two steampunk airships closing for battle.
The War of the Worlds for my OTR friends:
Tim, the Tentacle Monster, from Rorscharchblot's story Thief, not currently available outside of his Yahoo group, CaerAzkaban.
And here's Tim the Tentacle Monster in his new, red Auror robe, er, outfit on patrol on Diagon Alley.
