Hey, I liked The Reality Disfunction - although that wasn't a WIP...

Probably not the source code for entire image that this flower will be part
of, but I might release the code for just this flower head eventually.

Maybe similiar to a problem when sphere_sweep has a small diameter or short
bends between vectors?
Flower looks much like those silk and plastic fake ones; which is probably a
good thing since I'm always confusing the fakes for real flowers, especially
the ones with plastic(?) dew or raindrops added. But I'm getting better at
telling the difference.
I'm thinking the petals might be better if translucent. I've got some orange
tiger lillies here but they haven't bloomed yet or else I'd take a look at
them to check. Just seems to me that there should be light passing through
them.

I meant the shaft|stalk|tube of the pistil. Could have sworn that it
was not a perfect cylinder or cone but rather that if you took the
cross-section it would be revealed that it is more irregular. Could
swear I see some faint shadows or striations running lengthwise which
could either be texturing or actual form. But obviously my eyes are
decieved. Anyway that only reinforces my original comment. That the
straight texture is probably accurate but combined with the plain
geometry doesn't quite make us think this structure was the result of
organic growth.

Really excellent work, Rune!
Everything has already been said, and better than I could, so just a smal
comment on the pistil. It seems to me that there should be a tiny
indentation at the top, and maybe very fine radial striation there too? It
should also be less shiny I believe. However, I have no example at hand, so
I write from memory...

Very nice photo. In french, we call those "lis" or "lys". Mostly white but also found
in many other
colours.

Thanks .... I posted it as a comparison .... I think Rune has done a
fantastic job! I'd be interested in seeing the finished work.

That's a great reference image. Thanks!
In case you have the image in higher resolution, I'd appreciate it if you
could send it to me. But even as it is, it's of better quality then the
images of red lilies I could find with Google.

Yeah, I got them; thanks. :)
The email address I'm posting with on these groups is valid, but of course
the one on my web site is fine too.
