Paper Abstract
Presented in this paper is a new approach that can generate the shaded space-filling molecular models more realistically with the light source being in any front direction instead of behind the viewer that is commonly used. Decrease of the intensity with distance is also taken into account to improve realism. Franklin's linearization principle is modified and employed to apply to the situation of intersected spheres and the algorithm is thus efficient.
