Created as a title image for a Photoshop based web
site, 7 various stock photography objects were clipped out and colorized in Photoshop.
Arranged in a circular manner, a 3D title and a sphere were then modeled in Truespace
2 (rendered as a 32-bit TGA with alpha channel) and added to the composition.
A paint smudge was then drawn with the pen tool and filled with a fractal pattern.
Next, a scanned pen knife was then colorized, distorted, and placed at various
points around the image. Finally, the entire group of elements was overlayed over
a radially blurred background layer.
