OK, here's a new version with a different floor (ment to look like sand) 
and now with radiosity as well.

I'm pretty please with it, personally. :-)

Right, now how about modelling the *glassware* that's actually supposed 
to be the focal point... LOL!

      That's looking better. It looks like your block is actually sitting on 
something now.

Almost looks like a stone fragment I used to own as a child :) I like it

Er, yuh! And it looks more like actual water rather than some CG thing...

FWIW, 5 hours for this image. Which shouldn't be too bad for the final 
thing. I doubt adding some glassware will slow it down much.

I have 2 glasses now. Very simple ones. I'm about to add a whisky glass.

Tell me, what is the name of that quadratic that looks like a blunt cone?

Yeah, I have a collection of stone fragments on my wall. My mum keeps 
buying me things... not sure why.

Anyway, sadly the stone texture is just one of POV-Ray's built-in ones. 
But hey, it looks nice.

     Paraboloid: x^2+z^2=y

     Why don't you find a nice rock texture and use it as a bump map? It's 
fun trying to get it right and watching the render(s).

How long does it *take* to place 5 cylinders and 3 torii? ;-)

Cool. I just found out what shape the bottom of my whisky glass will be. ;-)

I try not to use bitmaps and I try not to use meshes. I prefer the 
conceptual purity of using only algorithmically defined shapes and 
textures. ;-)

    LOL! That's the funniest thing you've ever said! :op

     Ok, but you do also say, "try not to use..."   It might be worth a try 
after you've sorted it all out algorithmically.   ;)
