search "finish maps mael" on the web interface of http://news.povray.org and
you'll find a thread in povray.binaries.images where Mael posts an example
of a finish map using a patch he was working on. Gilles Tran then mentions
it can be done without the patch in the official pov and give an example
how. I've used Gilles technique on simple objects and have liked it.
nice job on the thing. it looks amazing. I'd love to see it in a scene :)
