I'm a small (miniscule) indie writer with too many migraines and not enough income. If you'd like to help, check out my Ko-fi and consider buying something or tipping. It helps keep the lights on and the cats fed!

Look at all of this cheap shit. Now imagine the gold bling is cats. Dusty ceramic cat statues, little embroidered pictures of cats, old framed posters of cats so old the ink has faded.
This is a crazy cat man but for bling.

!['Shadows over Jupiter' - a simple render, but one of my favourite B5 LightWave images. Made Jan 2000.
I’m pretty sure the Whitestar was by Kier Darby [ap3d.com], who wrote a very popular step-by-step tutorial revealing how it was made, textures and all.
