Yep, thats one of the errors that made me think it was my syntax

Ah - ha! "pigment_pattern" is a new one on me.  There's so much to learn.

Thanks very much for you help it is appreciated.  If you add ...

                                        warp {
                                             turbulence <0,3,0>
                                             }

... to the density block, you'll see what I was attempting.

I was inspired by an image someone posted here that used media filled chess
pieces for a "Hollographic" look.

I want to try the same but have the media vaporise when the board gets shut
down.  It could be a mighty cool animation.
