I'm making this for a card O:-) It will give me lots of POV "credits" for
the coming 12 months...
Anyway, I modelled the rose petal in ProEngineer and exported it as a mesh,
then used POV to make multiple random copies. There are two intersecting
but that will simply be a case of tweaking the random seed in the final.
The vase is simple CSG of spheres and a torus for the top ring. The stalk
is a sphere sweep with cones for the thistles.
The background is the HDR demo scene that comes with MegaPOV.
Just one point light source and photons.
I think the red of the petals needs to be brighter?

It may be more dramatic lighting. But nice looks.

I find something amusing about using "ProEngineer" to create an
artificial faximily of a natural object. Don't ask me why...

They're called thorns honey. ;-)

Erm... perhaps. Depends on the effect you want. Personally, I quite like
the colour they are now - a very deep, strong, dramatic red. Gives it
character. (But then, maybe I just like dark colours? My favourit colour
is dark green. Emerald, if you will.)
Anyway, a nice image. (Nicer than anything I ever made anyway...)

Well that's what you get for being an Engineer :-) Seriously though, I
knocked it up in 5 or 10 minutes, variable section sweep of an arc (radius
controlled by an exponential of the distance along the sweep), and the sweep
path was a conic section curve. Then I added some thickness and rounded the
edges. It would have taken me forever to work out how to that using SDL,
and I couldn't have adjusted the parameters in real time to get it looking
right :-)

...so you're one of the people who wastes company time outside their
lunchbreak then? ;-)

Looks good, however I'd suggest either a slightly shorter vase or a
longer stalk .. there's probably rules that florists use so you could
ask one, but I'm guessing that about 50/50 vase/stalk.
Also, I think you have too many thorns on there .. once again, check
with the local florist.
Good luck with the POV-Points ..
Cheers!

What's wrong with that?!
