Ah, you've checked out my homepage! ;-) Sorry, that there are no PoV-Ray
renderings up to now... currently, I'm working on the Space section, I'm
sure I will feature there some raytraced Solar System or even extrasolar planet

space art scenes...

Also long hair? I haven't visited your homepage up to now, but kept track of
your
previous PoV works - so I think of you as a typical Middle Ages re-inactment/
fantasy roleplaying geek, and this would fit the image quite well...

Yes, that's probably true. I myself didn't dig into the modelling of scalp or
facial
hair until now, but it would be a tremendous task when it comes to populating
my
Khyberspace scenes with authentically looking Afghans...
