If you're using MegaPOV or v3.5 beta you can use an image pattern with a
pigment_map or texture_map, which combines the capabilities of
material_map with the "average" pattern. It works like painting with POV
textures instead of colors (although the display in your paint program
will of course be the greyscale image.)
