yeah global media IS a little harder to get it to behave like I'd have 
hoped so it's containerized ... type 4 scattering

It's mac/pc platform ... I'm on linux. I've been using blender, but not 
much lately. It has a sculpting tool but when I tried to give that a go 
on this model, I found that I'd unlearned most of what I'd picked up 
with casual use. Now that blender has hooks into povray I really need to 
sit down and learn it proper. Blender is pretty nice ... and it fits my 
budget too ;-)
