Well, this really got me started the New Year on the right footing! All 
my best wishes for a successful continuation.

Hi Pekka Aho,

I always enjoy your work, and this new direction is very interesting! I am
curious, are the blurry effects around some of the graphics (such as the words
"Roosters! v1.0") a result of converting anti-aliased bitmap images into
something POV-Ray can manipulate, or are they generated procedurally? If the
blurry effects are intentional then please forgive my comment, but if not I
would humbly suggest that the blurriness detracts somewhat from the image. The
style itself is very exciting.

Spectral Rooster is definitely my favorite! Followed closely by Alien Rooster!

Thank you for sharing these awesome images from your project.

Regards,
Dave Blandston

Many thanks for the feedback & cheers! =)

This is a remarkably goofier project compared to what I usually tend to do, so
we'll see what kind of wackyness I end up with, hehe. :D

The blur on the images seems to come from scaling the final rendered images up
to pixelated ones. I did have AA on the actual renderings, but then had it
turned off on my image editor, and apparently something happens there that
results in some slight softening here and there regardless. I have to
investigate it further just in case. :)

The latest one for this lil' project of mine. I realized a home world is also
needed, so here's a cyber egg planet. :D

An unpixelated version this time for some sharper details.

"The Eggerprise" :D

PS. Although most likely not using that name in the final game. The
reference/source of inspiration is so evident that probably no need to
particularly underline it, heh.

.....aaand the very second I posted that one I realized I should have scaled the
main structure up a notch to bulge more and actually appear more clearly
egg-like also from the side points of view. Well, back to some fine-tuning then.
