I noticed too.  I thought the older one had too many blemishes.

I agree about this.  Perhaps you could put a drink on the armrest of the
chair.
Yeah, and put the parasol in that!

I agree.

This is turning out to be a very exciting piece!  An excellent, simple idea
that I wish I had thought of myself, that I probably wouldn't have realized
as beautifully as you have.  Keep up the good work!

Yeah, it was a bit flat too. Though in the meantime I tried a couple of
completely different textures based on some image maps I've got, and it wasn't
until I compared them to the old version that I realised they looked worse! That
wasted a few hours, but at least I got something good eventually.

Cool idea! I could leave the pov logo on the parasol soit's only visible as a
tiny detail in the final poster-sized render :)
