The "over here, over paid and over sexed" brigade brought it with them
in WWII. It was popular in Britain up to the sixties (IIRC). Kilroy is
generally peering over a wall.
It went out of fashion when the New Yorkers came up with subway art. No
we have Banksy.

Best of luck.
My wife has an early edition of it and the woodcuts are macabre.
Beautiful in an essence of Hieronymus Bosch.

Ha! I have (re?)learned something! Different possibilities: (1) Somehow,
I never made the connection and/or I have never been really exposed to
the correct graphic expressions; (2) the connection was lost at the time
we re-used the graphics; (3) I have simply forgotten today the details
of our use back then in the sixties. Fascinating.

Ouch! Ouch! How, the pain...
At least, the mirror been usualy made of glass, it's just a mather of
removing the aluminium and getting a new coat. But you need to find a
place where they can do it.

Thanks indeed. However, the renders are not perfect as they were made
with POV-Ray 3.6 which has/had gamma problems amongst other things. The
result is rather washed out and with pale complexions for the Poser
figures. With version 3.7 that belongs all to the past. If I have time,
I shall provide new renders.

So that's what it was.
I always had to view them with adjusted Gamma.

Yes, and I had a hell of a time to get a decent skin texture without
knowing what the problem was... until Christoph jumped into the gamma
pit and changed the world forever after :-)
