To keep myself from the streets, I am leisurely strolling through 
different codes and utilities I have collected over the years, many of 
them never really used in a scene.

I thought it would be interesting to combine two techniques from Sam 
Benge: his strands utility and his rockhead code.

This is a very first result, needing some fine tuning of course, but you 
get the idea.

No. It is an identity photo of myself taken many years ago by my boss 
for internal use at the Survey. I look younger than I am now ;-)

Obviously, it was heavily processed in The Gimp before throwing it in 
Sam's blender.

I'm ashamed to say that I don't have those utilities or even know about them.
Could you give a link to where I can find them? The strands utility definitely
looks interesting. Thanks.
