Jaime, it's not only that the texture looks even better, it's simply perfect
!!!!!
(while this happens, an angels' choir sings in an endless loop:
"Jaime, que tu eres el amo, que tu eres el amo, desto el raitrais")
Certainly a masterpiece.

Yes, please. It seems we are all hungry. Feed us. ;-)

I would love to see a bodegon made by you.

Fernando.

Awesome!

When I used to teach an Introductory Art course my favorite first project was
to have students bring in two apples.  I would then instruct them to paint one
apple to exactly mimic the other.

 And the winner is... Txemi! But I suspect he cheated... ;)

 The shape is a blob constructed "a la SOR", within a loop, and adding 
some random displacement/scale to individual components. Very handy for 
most fruits and some other vegetables. Code release is waiting for the 
Linux RC6, to finish some details...

  Hmmm... If you are refering to the "big" knobs, they are simply part of 
the multi-component blob, not the normal. Although there are apples so 
knobbly at the bottom, I also see it a bit strange.

  Thanks for the criticism!
