Yes indeed, and you are a master at texturing/uv-mapping your objects. 
Personally, much of /that/ work I do with the help of dedicated 
modellers (mainly Silo), others here would probably mention Blender at 
this stage. Do you use those or do you all the modelling in POV-Ray?

Still, when I examine for instance your jacks workbench scene, I am 
absolutely overcome by the quality of the lighting. And somehow, it 
looks so /casual/ that I wonder where the trick is hidden. Lighting a 
scene is - at least for me - something not /casual/ at all!
