The overhanging parts aren't obvious in the first version of this image
(aside from the whole thing leaning left, but that could easily be done with
Skew_Trans on a height field), but if you look at my new post they're much
more visible.
The render time's mostly caused by radiosity (which I've since disabled) and
reflections & refractions. A heightfield would be a big help with those
because it traces very quickly, though the resolution I'd need for this
image would mean a huge pretrace time to generate that heightfield, and a
huge lump of memory to store it!
