the project included two phases. phase 1: modeling the watcher holding a telescope. phase 2 : modeling the whole scene and integrating both of them. u can see the phase one result in the [ poser ] page. it was done after the test shot above. vastly time-consuming when trying out everything by myself. sometimes merely one effect would take me one whole afternoon to make it look correct. and the scene was so large that made my machine an ancient 286. usually a view port refresh would take 4 or 5 seconds, so i disabled as many view ports as possible when working. god ! i am gonna get me a dual-processor computer, well, someday maybe :P

the same scene, different setup. usually the rendering time doesn't take so long. it's that raytracing stuff. like radiocity method, the raytracing takes extra time to calculate each beam of light from the source projecting to the view screen. and i got an OCEAN here ! it means that millions of faces needed to be processed.
