Yeah I'm re-rendering it now with a far higher polygon count - the mesh file
is huge though (3min parse not 3 seconds) and I've finally got around to
reading the radiosity manual in Pov 3.5 end to end so actually know what the
different parameters do (just randomly tweaking them was painfully slow).

Definately - the way in which I do things is *so* different now in rhino. I
used to build everything up from lathes and primitives, but now I build up
surfaces from curves and tweak them and trim/split them (the result of doing
a few tutorials) and I feel it gives me far more control.
