Blender 2.63
I'm new to Blender and after 3 months I was thrilled to be able to create something pleasing to the eye.
The following rendering is the extension of something I saw in a Blender tutorial.
A wine glass was created by extruding a cube. Then the wine glass was placed in a mirrored box with two sides and the top removed. Duplicates of the wine glass were made. On the first duplicate the top was deleted. On the second, the bottom was deleted and the remaining upper part placed on the floor of the mirrored box. On the last duplicate the top and bottom part were deleted leaving a small shard of glass that was also placed on the floor of the box. The camera was positioned and various lamps were used to light up the still life.
