  Practice makes perfect ?

Hello,

I have been playing around with povray and reading this newsgroup. I can 
understand that using SDL for creating scenes with simple objects or a 
combination thereof (cylinder, cone etc.) is quite handy (particularly 
for me since I have a programming background).

What I don't understand is how SDL can be used to create complex scenes 
with trees, people, faces etc. It would seem much more difficult to use 
SDL than a modelling program. Or does it require practice ? That is, 
once you start using SDL on a regular basis, you simply start imagining 
even complex scenes intuitively in math. Is that true ?

Regards,
Mahesh
