It's a surprise so I can't say what this is until you (Ken T.) look at it.
What I can say though is that this render had a problem about having a object
added to it whether in CSG or just by itself.  I get incorrect or no texture
showing for the added object.  To try and summarize, there's a very large scaled
sphere for the ground and another for the sky (not sky_sphere).  That's it.
Only other thing besides is the triangle mesh (a converted 3DS by Grand Admiral
Stone) model and a couple of Suns for light.  I thought it was the ground fog at
first but that's not it, hollow on or off kind of thing.  I guess it has
something to do with the scale instead, sphere {0,1 scale <90000,10000,90000>},
but I haven't taken the time to check yet except that even 1/100th the scale
does the same thing.  Somethings not right...
Anyway, so what you see here CSG differenced away from the ground in essence is
textureless and has the fog color, just so you know.

Just in case someone wants to know about the 3DS model:

Now I need to go email Marc Schimmler about something  :-)
