The recent "logo" theme got me thinking it would be an interesting
project to make P, O, and V using CSG.

Here's the ingredients for the object casting shadows on three walls:

quartic, cylinder, triangular prism, box.

Sweet! I could never have come up with a shape like that...

Clever idea, but it might be hard to make the shadows be seen once the image
is scaled down to an icon.

Were these true type fonts or hand-made letters ?

Thanks for the comments so far.  I was not intending to submit this to
any logo contest, since it doesn't really fit the guidelines --- it
loses most of the interesting detail in a smaller rendering, and
seeing all the letters (which is the whole point) depends a lot on
camera angle and lighting.

The "font" is hand-made, I guess :-), since I started with the surface
and just chipped away the parts that didn't look like P, O, V.  I'll
post the code in text.scene-files.

I am thinking about using this as a logo for my own image gallery.

    At this time, AFAIK, there -are- no guidelines for a current Pov-Logo
competition.

A really simple concept put to excellent use by an impressively vivid
imagination. Congratulations!
