ANIMATION DESCRIPTION:

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

I created the Babylon 5-Station using Lightwave_s Modeler and Acad with ACIS.
The hardest work was the proportion of the station, I had to view many series of
B5 to get it right.
All the objects were made in Acad and edited in Lightwave Modeler for texturing
and some finetune.
Some textures were included in Lightwave, but I changed them a little in
Photoshop.
The Vorlon-Ship was very easy to create, because it is so symetrical, the
tentacles were extruded in Acad and used in Modeler.
The texture of the Vorlon is Fractal-Noise, a standard procedural texture in
Lightwave, looks very similar to the series, isn_t it?
I am no expert but I like 3d-animation very much.

VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: 
    ActiveMovie for Windows 95/NT works well
