IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Sometimes, somewhere, in the future, a drive-in movie (fly-in ?) 
at the edge of the city.  There are multiples interpretations of 
the theme here.  First is the drive-in thing.  The movie has not 
yet begun, and they're showing a "road runner" episode to help us 
wait.  Another film has just ended on another screen.  Overall
ambience of the scene is inspired by SF movies (not a particular 
one).  There is also some architectural inclination.  
Many would say : "why it's all green ?"; pollution !!
 note : the "road runner" image is also submitted as "meep.jpg".


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

Environnement is set by :
-sky sphere (real sphere) with a layered texture
-multiple fogs (layered and regular)
-ground checkered plane (can't get rid of these !)
-ground rectangular grid
-two light sources

There are 10 differents buildings, some are repeated 2 or 3 times.  
3 of them were pre-build (by me !), but all textures (and some parts)
were changed to match the black-gold-light... palette of the image.  
2 of them are based on well-known architectures.

There are 2 different flying objects : the dragonfly and the carp.  
The dragonfly is from my previous objects, the carp is new.

Everything in the scene is hand-made CSG.

I gave a slight tilt (sky <0,0,.2>) to the camera, to obtain a slightly 
inclined view, suggesting that WE are riding in a ship.
