Thanks guys :D

Well, I came up with this idea that it
would be cool if some of the parts of
the probe stuck out of the image..
Soo.. How to do that?

The image is a composite of;
1. The probe itself with everything else set to "No image".
2. The rest of the scene without the probe.

Because.. If I wanted to cut away the pieces in
Photoshop I would have to render the pic in
a insane size to be able to get rid of the artefacts..
Soo. I figured this was the fastest way..

Then ofcourse I could have done the composite in
POV-Ray, but I did it in Photoshop since it would
be much faster..

In that sence I cheated if you look at from a hard core
POV-Ray users point of view.. ;)

Apart from the bumpmap for the body of the probe
there are no imagemaps in the scene..
Everything were done in Moray.  I used one
big arealight and several spotlights with a blueish
colour and no shadow to get more contrast.

Again, thanks for the nice words :)
