Old Gas Induction Valve

Image created for the June 07 Renderoisty Challenge: "Old".

Model of a Gas Induction Valve used in Steel smelting.

Based on a photo I found on-line but I can't find it now to give proper credit.

Modeled in FormZ and Modo.

Staged, textured and rendered in Bryce 6.1 with another of my "false" HDRI images (created in PhotoshopCS3).

Rendered on a dual-dual MacPro.
