I'm working on a POV model inspired by Escher's <I>Another World</I>.  This
is intended to become
a large print to hang over my fireplace.

So far, I have a roughed out model of the central structure.  This was
rather confusing to do, to put it
mildly.  It's all done directly with POV source and a little doodling on the
side.  To get a closer look at
joints and other details, I use close-up cameras.  The confusion stems from
the lack of a definite "up" and the self-similarness throughout, so it's
easy to get lost.

Any comments and advice appreciated.  The work can be seen at
<http://www.dlugosz.com/POV/another_world.html>

A few questions in general:

* anyone know where I can get a good high-quality print made in a poster
size?

* where can I get data for a human figure?  I'd like to incorporate a marble
statue, and that's a bit beyond my modeling abilities!
