  the power of prisms

while trying to create a scene to serve as light probe for 
hdr-renderings I needed some things to place in the room.
One of this things should be a swedish style oven.
Ater googeling around I found a nice one (pic. 1) and tried to model it 
(pic. 2).

The WIP(!!!) - model is mainly made out of prisms (9 prototypes) created 
with inkscape.

The only drawback was the need of sphere_sweeps which don't support 
bezier splines, so I had to write small macros to convert these splines
into a number of points which then are used as control points for cubic 
splines.

All textures are still quite rudimentary, also some parts are still 
missing which couldn't be made easily out of prisms.

... suggestions and (not to harsh) critics are welcome as always
