Still not quite happy with this one, probably need media

The model is horrible, is it a sheep or a horsy?? Did you model it with
CSG?? Looks like a lot of misaligned blobs to me... The fur is the most
unrealistic I've ever seen. You _could_ add "fade_power 2" and
"fade_distance [something]" to improve the lighting but "realistic"? Never.
Focal blur might also help to make it even remotely realistic.

Nooooo, quite the opposite! I find this scene extremely realistic.
If only I could do such marvelous work in pov!

How did you do the ground's texture? Is it a map or procedural?
And the cat (and it clearly IS a cat), is it a poser model?

Would you mind sharing the source?

Hope you will provide more of your awesome work to the public.

Cheers

Somehow I think mr. Salminen was being sarcastic ;).

Nah. It has to be a cat-looking bunny. Cat would be going around on it's 
back when raising head ;). Or at least the cats I know would probably be 
doing so :p.

But yes, the pic is more than nice. Incredible! Is it hard to render?

Oh, now I feel bad. April 1 is April Fool's day here,
a day of practical jokes. Previous poster was just
playing along. Sorry to get your hopes up, I too
wish I could do this!

Me? Sarcastic? On the 1st of April?? In your dreams ;-)

I should've been double sarcastic saying the very common phrase: "Stop
posting photographs to this group!" But no-one would have laughed at all...

You better tweak your radiosity settings. There are numerous artifacts on
that image.
