These seem to have a very good "painted" look...and I don't mean done in 
a paint program, I mean a real painting. Maybe watercolors...
Not necessarily a bad effect, just surprising. If you can just get the 
rest of a complex scene to look that way...

	Well, if you put your clouds in blobs, that might be why...

Mick: Put the blos in individual union{}s and bound them manually.  This
will decrease you render time by about 2/3rds.  I think.  This is the only
way I'm able to medel in blobs without loosing my sanity.

Well, that is more "cartoony" than what I was thinking of, but yes, that 
would do.

for the base of the cloud, what I had in mind, but didn't get around to doing,
was to use a function like exp(-y^2) or max(0, 1-y) or some such thing to have
the clouds fade out (not a slow fade though, just not a sudden chop) at the
bottom.
