I love toy caves. ;-) This one looks very believable. Good job indeed. 
It has been some time since I used meshrelief last but it is a nice and 
useful tool.

It does.  It looks like something Aardman would build.

Trying the rocks/stalagmites/stalactites code on a different cave with a
bit more complex geometry. Works, but tracing from a central point isn't
the best method for the rocks... will try hg-povray next for a different
approach.

Yes, the structures certainly have improved a lot! I like it. Try to use
less stalactites and -mites in the middle, or shorter ones, so the view
to the illuminated part is better.

A test of the "sunlight-coming-trough-a-hole-on-the-ceiling" idea...
looks promising.
