First Image: Erosion with Concavities

synthetic-goblin.jpg

This image is our first fully rendered terrain generated using our model of surface erosion that admits concave surfaces. It obviously needs some serious smoothing, but it looks more like a Goblin than our last one. (Algorithm: Matthew Beardall, translation to and mock-up in Bryce by Darius Ouderkirk)

This work was done as part of our BYU CS Capstone class on sandstone erosion modeling.
