Creating the pipes took ages, with me painstakingly adding sections and moving the camera views in order to create a tangle of piping, I added an orange tinged mist to give it an industrial feel. The dial was created in Illustrator and added as a texture in Strata.
Rendering went pretty quickly as I was using a Mac Pro with plenty of processing power, I added the water droplets afterwards in Photoshop. One thing that really bugs me with this one is that I didn't add droplets trickling down the pressure gauge's face, always wished that I'd had at the time.
Like the year before it got some 'wow' comments but didn't win...
