IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

This sword may comes from an ancient time, leaving anibody seeing this scene to
imagine some
old battle. Was it placed here with the hope to avoid any future war, or to
honour the bravery
of heroic warriors ? No one could say.  

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The sword has been done with Amapi 4.1.5 excepted the blade which was made with
spatch. 
The difficulty with these tools is to avoid defects in the meshes. The textures
are all from Vue
defaults, excepted the rocks which are made with a free jpg  texture found on
internet. Sea and 
atmosphear are also defaults from Vue. Render time was very long since I took
the best available 
options in antialiasing and  quality of render.
