The Rabbit cage was modeled after a real cage that sat in our back yard my father had made for our rabbit.  One day, while i was looking for something to model that would lend itself well to learning my (then) new program LightWave, i was struck by the mood of the abandoned cage and thought it'd make for a nice render.

Scene stats:

Polys:  .... In the area of 119,000 polys.
File Size:  .... The scene file was 203KB and the other object files totaled 1.34MB
with a 34.7MB texture folder to support it.
Render Time:  .... The 1600x1200 render was started around 2:00 one night
and was done when i woke up around 11:00.
Time Spent:  .... AHHHHH.....   i don't know if it was the fact i was so new to LightWave,
or my inability to concentrate, but this took forever.
126 objects
118413 polys
92637 verts
objects in ram 11.9M
39 surfaces
18 images

Here are some leftover renders still on the server, have a look...

There's an older render (from around 01/04/2003) to show the progress.

 

Here is a render of some of the detail after a little bit of work on the textures. This test render shows some of my niftier texturing jobs in the scene. I had just gotten two of the veins in when I rendered this...

 

This is the cage as it really existed.  It was built for our rabbit, that died about [two] year[s] ago.  It is now in the hands of another rabbit lover.  Hopefully they will take good care of it.
This picture was taken after the cage had been abandoned for quite a while.  I thought it would make a nice render.
