Flight Without Wings
Copyright 1991 by Marvin Landis
Hot Air Balloon Objects for use with Impulse Imagine
Hot Air Balloons have always held a special fascination for me. The thrill
of silent flight, being suspended in space and floating with the breeze is
like nothing else in the world. Having grown up in Albuquerque, New Mexico
I fondly remember many autumn mornings when colorful balloons dotted the
sky. I still look forward to 10 days every October when Albuquerque hosts
the International Balloon Fiesta. Mass ascensions, contests, and balloon
glows send over 500 hot air balloons into the sky, creating beautiful views
for balloonists, spectators and photographers. These hot air balloon
objects have been designed because of the many hours of enjoyment I have
received from watching and participating in the sport of hot air ballooning.
This directory includes 8 different hot air balloons and a gondola. The
gondola was created because the baskets included with the ballooons are
not very detailed since most of the time the balloons will be viewed
from a distance. The gondola is fairly detailed for close-up viewing and
includes a nice brush map for the weave of the basket.
These objects may be redistributed for any non-commercial use, but please
include this text file with the distributed files.
Happy Ballooning.
