Here's a little pic I've been working on.  The inspiration comes form a
TV ad.

The fisrt image is a cutout of the front fender and goes with a question
about blobs in .advanced-users, the second one is what I've done so far.

I know about these problems, so don't bother:
- The right side of the car runs into the ground.
- The A pillar (between the windshield and doors) isn't placed properly.
- The rearview mirrors need work.
- No headlights, door handles, licence plate, interior, etc... yet.
- There will be dust and dirt flying off all over the place.

Flames, comments, praises, bribes are accepted.

Yep, that's gonna go on the final version.

P.S.: Don't take my .sig too seriously - it just so happens i change
.sig files every second sunday (just like underwear!) and I just did
this morning - as your use of HTML was in good taste.

Now here's HTML in very poor usage by someone obviously unfamiliar with
it (clipped from an email):

I actually don't like the ground. Is this crackle pigment on a flat plane?
How about using an isosurface of the pigment?
