Just to share with you all, what I am doing using POV-Ray. This is a
very old life form, I am creating a number of very old life forms for an
upcoming scientific book of a German science author. And use POV-Ray for
the renders, of course! :-D

Hope you're enjoying the beauty of the render. Thanks to all the POV-Ray
developers for having created (and still developing further) such a
wonderful render engine.

Hi Sven,

nice render - but on firefox / Win7 i cannot see it online...
But your code shows really nice improvements (front and backside aren't
symmetrical by the way).

Here I want to show some "wavy lines" with those objects.
I used vturbulence to generate splines.
I think this more realistic than a simple combination of sin curves.
Of course there are still some issues you have to play with...

Full code is in
http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.scene-files/message/%3Cweb.5a96beb7fe98e6328f4894750%40news.povray.org%3E/#%3Cwe
b.5a96beb7fe98e6328f4894750%40news.povray.org%3E
..

For rendering you have to get a hdr file from here:
https://www.openfootage.net/hdri-360-cres-croatia/ .

Yes, the result looks good. :-)

I wonder, if it can create something like a wind-deformed flag?

No, much more primitive than a jellyfish, this is a life form around one
billion years ago. We're not even sure, if it is an animal, algae, or a
fungus, or if it is something that was before the splitting into these
three "kingdoms".

Same here (and it doesn't download either.) The fault must be in all of those
odd characters in the file name.

Hey Sven, it would be better to name an image file as "old_lifeform" or "old
lifeform" or something similar  ;-)

That is strange. No problems here with Firefox and win7.

Looks like the web frontend for the newsgroups doesn't take kindly to
non-ASCII characters.

Here again, now without special letters in the file name. I actually
even add more images.

Much earlier than previously thought, there was multi-cellular life on
Earth. Evidence was just been found, and here are those life forms. They
were however very small in size.

There will be a scientific book coming out for which I am making these
illustrations, and I will try to get the POV-Ray name into this book
(but not sure if that will be accepted).
