IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    The twin towers namely Petronas Twin Towers or KLCC is the
world's tallest building located at the center of Kuala Lumpur City, Capital of
Malaysia. This is how Kuala Lumpur city looks like at 8am on the first
morning of the new millennium, quiet, hazzy and atmospheric. The bird is a
symbolic logo of the creative institute that I'm currently studying at.



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The entire image was done in Lightwave 5.6. The polygon count of the models was
kept to the minimal in order to lighten navigation in the scene. Texturing
plays
a very important role in bringing out the realism of the morning city scape.
Only planar and cylindrical mapping was used in the entire scene. All the
textures
, are original and created by me in Photoshop 4.0 and Illustrator 7.0. The sky 
was actually a textured uncapped cylinder. The sky texture was created from
scratch
in Photoshop.
