Any ideas on stars, I could try playing around with a large hollow sphere
with a noised-pigment, I tried the Galaxy plugin for Moray, but got lots of
fancy Star-Trek stuff that I couldn't get rid off - I got a galaxy rather
than a night sky (suprisingly), but hoped to twist it.  HF's for the upper
snow was an idea, but I think is a little beyond me, I would have to angle
the snow and set it up to work throughout the scene (the roof is at varying
degrees throughout), thinking on it though I could stretch and repeat if
necessary <thinking>.  OK maybe that is a good idea, thanks
