Open Portal 'Finished'

I found the Gate itself on a free site but the walk-way is something I came up with based on pictures I found, the trees are done by me, and the ground is done by me. Done in 3DS Max 7. Didn't mean to get the Stargatish look, until I found out it was Lou's fave show. Needed to do a b-day gift for her.

May 5 06 - Finaly finished it today! It took a good 2 and a half hours to fully render due to all of the shadows being cast on each individual leaf....Anyways, this is a birthday present to my dear friend
