Mesh pyramids, randomly placed, variously pigmented: gradient z
for "color", slope for "normal", rgb <rand()...> for "solid".
finish { ambient 1 }
camera { orthographic }

I'd expect some difference because I only rotated the pyramids on z --
and because I've no idea how crackle places the nuclei.


... Meanwhile, another idea: if (dx,dy,dz) were replaced with
(dx+dy,dx+dz,dy+dz), the `crystal' would be a rhombic dodecahedron. 
Maybe I can get Grimbert interested. ;)

Is there a "So You Want To Patch Povray" faq somewhere?
