Nice dinosaur texture you've got there.  You mind sharing the code?

What gives with the reindeer? One of Santa's levitating kind (Rudolph or

I see you're getting the moost out of POV that you can.  Udderly
fascinating.  I love the sky and the reptilish texture onthe big cows -
can you share?

Thank you. As soon as I can find time to extract it from the rest of
the mess I'll attach the texture I used to this thread.

  I was actually thinking Cowasaurus as I laughed myself all the way
through the creation of this scene. The raindeer was added to give that
damn cute dragon a little competition. It really didn't fit but I had to
stick it in somewhere.

  At one time I lived in a state here in the USA called Wyoming. On one ranch
that I visited the rancher had a couple of different British breeds of cattle
that resembled something more like an over grown long haired english sheep dog
than any traditional looking cow I have ever seen before or since. The were
very unatuaral looking but 20 years later I can see them in my mind quite
clearly.

 There are two versions here. One texture uses syntax available only in the
Photon Patch of Pov-Ray and is the texture used for the image posted. The
second should for all intensive purposes work with the official build of
Pov-Ray and yeild the same results.


#declare F1 = 
 finish {
         ambient     0.350 
         diffuse     0.450 
         reflection  0.025
        }

#declare F2 = 
 finish {
         ambient     0.250
         diffuse     0.400
         reflection  0.000
        }

#declare P1 = 
 texture   {
 pigment   { 
 image_map { gif "rept3.gif" interpolate 2 
           }
             translate -0.5 
           }
    finish { F2 
           }
           }

#declare P2 = 
 texture   {
 pigment   { 
 image_map { gif "rept3.gif" interpolate 4 
           }
             translate -0.5 
           }
    finish { F1 
           }
           }

  // The Photon Patch Version

 #declare C1 = 
  texture      {
  image_pattern{ gif "rept3.gif" interpolate 2 
               }
  texture_map  {
                [0.25 P1]
                [0.50 P2]
                [0.75 P1]
                [1.00 P2] 
               }
                scale      0.5 
                turbulence 0.1
               }

  // The Standard Pov Version

 #declare C1 = 
  texture     { crackle  
  texture_map {
               [0.25 P1]
               [0.50 P2]
               [0.75 P1]
               [1.00 P2] 
              } 
               scale      0.5 
               turbulence 0.1
              }


  This texture should scale at 1 pov unit but you of course can scale as
needed to suit your own application.

 If used in an IRTC entry I would appreciate an honorable mention. Other
than that there are no restrictions for it's use.

I'll have to come up with a gargoyle to add to my scenes. Just so they become
more absurd. or... a checkered landscape :-)

Hmm.  Does this mean I'm going to have to retool the dragon for extra
cuteness?

 "Did I just feel a nibble on my fish'n line" Ken thinks to himself as he
lets out a little more line so as not to spook em. He is patient and can
wait as long as it takes.

I'm not sure why you would group them as you did but you have the distinction
of creating udderly unique imagery. Only three little details are steering this
from credibility - there is no foul methane laden cloud hanging in the air above,
the ground is spotless (impossible with that many cows around), and the lines
are to orderly. Cows be moovers and shakers and will horn their way into anything,
but orderly is not their cup of milk so to speak.

If you get time stop by Warps page and check out his Bovine IRTC submission
in the gallery/images section. I still chuckle every time I think about his
image.

It's a challenge -- the opening salvo of Cute Wars.

So, will you be cowed by this challenge?  Are you a man or a moose?
