Better than nothing :-)

For understanding: It works similar to a L-System, except there is no
branching (yet) and the rules are defined by the pigment:

-Direction according to the color values and a general "drift" direction
-size according to luminance

And of course the different lines use different multiplication factors.
The rest is cones and spheres.

I hope that made things clearer, If I have time to improve it, I will
also post the code.
