Lol. I guess it's better to play God with art than it is with other 
people's lives. Everybody plays the role in one way or another. I'd 
rather do it in a harmless fashion :)

Okay, where's my crown. I didn't get a crown :(

Don't abandon media! It's still a better option for glass objects and 
clouds. I did, however, manage to use my SSS pattern with a transparent

absorbing media. It was faster than using scattering media, and didn't 
look altogether bad.
