Problems with a new video card not wanting to handle complicated images, had me change to new subjects 4 times. I rushed to replace the broken one without doing enough research.

Thank you Sydney for the winning name! I can't declare winner on Facebook because their rules distance themselves from contest liability.
I didn't know the definition of oracle included the knowledge & wisdom passed from an oracle, but now I realize the name fits perfectly.

I'm behind on my work, so I present another image from a board game project I've been working on. This magic potion container was an homage to the movie Big Trouble in Little China.

Another view of the maze of walls I used once before in Far Keep.
I was tempted to put a trashcan outside the gate. (can you imagine taking out the trash?)

This image rendered for three days on 4 computers before crashing, and losing all the work. I rendered again at wallpaper sizes only, just to get it online. I may never try rendering a commercial version of this one again.

I used a grenade in the Improvised Robotic Device image, but it was a bit low res for it's own stand alone image, so this one was created nearly from scratch. it's a M26 fragmentation grenade.

This one has been sitting unfinished for a year, because the gray blast wave didn't like mixing with the fire, and kept crashing the computer. I figured out it would render once per loading of the image, only crashing the second attempt. So I reloaded after each test render, which let me finish.

I made the lights with primitive shapes in Vue 6, (Meta and Boolean objects) but as I kept making it more and more detailed, it ended up taking 64 hours to render. Which half way through, had me wondering if it would take 12 days.

Apparently this golfer needs to switch to the Top Float brand ball.
