— Joint Venture Nibor – Projects: Robin # 16: The Arena —
Robin # 16: The Arena
v00: Horo
- Initiated by: Horo. Date: 16 May 2006.
- Motto (by David): Arena
Horo set up the Arena — or the Colosseum, built with Bryce
boolean primitives.
- Bryce Source File Size: 33.2 MB

v01: David
- David remodeled the colosseum with Wings. Then he added a roofing
bit with some blue windows in and put some spots above that. He
changed the material on the building, tweaked the sky and put a
materal on the ground.
- Bryce Source File Size: 4.9 MB.

v02: Horo
- oro isolated the material on the ground plane for the arena
floor and introduced an arena perimeter with a different material.
The groundplane became the street. He tried to put the arena into
an urban context. He went for a long block.

v03: David
- David remodeled the background buildings with Wings to break
up the harshness of the geometry of Horo's background buildings.
- Bryce Source File Size: 8.6 MB.

v04: Horo
- Horo thought that the Arena was used to have Trolls and Nybrases
fight Dragons. This has long gone since all three have perished. A
sculpture was set into the Arena to remember the fact. Dragon, Troll,
Nybras and the axes are from DAZ3D; material is a modified Haematite
by Richter as is used on the knot on the colon. Horo set one radial
light above the fighters.
- Bryce Source File Size: 45.5 MB.

v05: David
- David moved away from the literal to the fantasy, added some
mirrors, a lot of haze and coloured lights to set the focus on
the figures.
- Bryce Source File Size: 39.9 MB.

v06: Horo
- Horo went more to the dream realm. He introduced two fairies as
watchers. The arena floor got semi-transparent and reflective with
a low refraction setting. Then, he introduced a flat cube between
the floor and the lower part of the mirror cube and gave it a blue
random volume material. This cube was then copied and set below the
first with swapped red and blue colour values. The arena got a ceiling,
essentially a copy of the floor, but with different reflection,
refraction and transparency settings. Then he lowered the max Ray Depth
from 6 to 4. Finally, he moved the camera slightly and opened it by a
small amount.
- Bryce Source File Size: 103.4 MB.

v07: David
- David moved one of the «watchers» and added some
plasma volume effect up above.
- Bryce Source File Size: 103.4 MB.

Result
- The Arena
