Just trying to keep myself awake with a little diversion.

I used Michael Andrews' Plane from "Death of a Cliche."
The bullet is a simple cylinder/sphere union.
The bill is a cheap jpeg off the web.

Can somebody suggest a better texture for the bullet?
I'm using this (copied and tweaked from "metals.inc"):

  texture {
    pigment { rgb <0.80, 0.80, 0.95> }
    finish {
      ambient 0.35
      brilliance 2
      diffuse 0.3
      metallic
      specular 0.80
      roughness 0.005 // 1/20
      reflection 0.2
    }
  }
