Yes, I know; this challenge happened 5 years ago... but with all the SSLT action
lately it seemed like a fun challenge (especially since Warp asked recently if
all we can do with it is wax) so...

Here's the basic scene setup in Silo 2.1

And here's my final render (with my son, way back when he was only 12, in the
picture frame).

Cheers,

   Wow... that wax texture is very convincing, and there is a really
great "candle light atmosphere".

   (BTW, I just noticed this scene has many things in common with my old
"Vodu" IRTC entry from 1997!)

Nice.   This is actually one of the challenges I had participated in.
My candle wax was scattering media.  I may soon have to have a look at the SSLT.

Coincidentally, I was just thinking of digging it out to use as a staging set
for the buddha rendering I was doing.

When I saw the word "awesome" I was somehow expecting the word "Rolex"  
next.
Maybe the date has something to do with it.

Even so, it looks quite convincing too.

Are we approaching perfection with POV-Ray?  :-)

Hmmm, getting closer for sure, thanks! :)

But after looking at Trevor's shot from 5 years ago I see many things to improve
on mine now, LOL.
