Hi All,

Since I'm always searching povray newsgroup to look for specific methods 
of doing things, I decided to try to gather them all in a single picture 
both to have a quick idea on what it looks like and also to have a quick 
access on source. The image currently shows (in order):

  - Blurred reflection (from Povray Questions and Tips)
  - Spheric mapping of object (I did this one)
  - Ice (or water ?) from a recent post by IkA
  - Furtex by Rune S. Johansen

Of course, this image is still a WIP and it misses a bunch of other 
great methods/tips that have been posted like subsurface scattering, 
fire, water, furballs, media clouds, etc.

At this point, I would need your help to complete the image by adding 
some more balls showing special effects/textures/methods...

Anyone interested ?
Comments ? Ideas ?


Nicolas

You could also use my Electro-Static-Repulstion Macro, which places an
arbitrary amount of objects evenly spaced on a sphere...

Subsurface-Scattering could also be done, if you'd send me the source (just
the wooden box and a spot to put the sphere) I could prepare one.

I'm ok to make an isosurface ball (rock ?) what's the radius of your balls ?

    Are you sure you want to know?  ;)

Thanks!
I've just posted the source to povray.binaries.scene-files.
(It uses the isowood 3 library).

There are separate files for each ball (so it's easier to access 
sources) with filename describing where the ball is placed and there is 
also a small macro (ball_at) to place the ball on shelf.

Ooops, I forgot about this one and it should definitely be included. 
Thanks !
If you can also make subsurface scattering that would be very cool 
because my first attempt was a real shame.

Sources have been posted to povray.binaries.scene-files.

    Heh... That's fair enough then... :)

   Keep up the good work with this idea. I like it.
