IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    Hmm, what is an alien doing in the
museum_s Great Engineering department.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The alien sitting on the chair was modelled with NURBS-curves.
Space shuttle created after NASA pictures, and
so are the textures.  Poster background map found on the net, and rendered in
the scene.
Shuttle combustion made in MAX using several box Gizmos and Environmental 
Combustion (Explosion) at different timing to make it look more burnt out
further down. This scene rendered separatly, and then mapped on the poster.
Light effects created using one Omni lightsource and two spotlights with
Environmental Volume Light, making the air look dusty. Reflection on the
bases and the floor created using Raytrace 2.0 in MAX. Textures created
and modified using PhotoShop 3.0.
