It was a hot, busy day.
   A hard day at work at the sandwich restaurant left me tired and hungry...
And then on my table I saw it,
   I found a letter.

But what does it MEAN!?

This is based on the idea of RusHHouR's "The Letter" WIP.  I just 
couldn't resist the idea of this parody.  Seeing a mysterious letter...

I coughed it up in about 10 minutes.  I messed around with making a 
candle with a holder, but wasn't satisfied so I just took it out, 
leaving a mysterious source of light.  Meh...I'm just not that good of a 
modeller, and I didn't want to spend forever on something that is really 
a joke.

I just saw RusHHouR's "The Letter" WIP and just had to make it.  Rather 
than a letter that someone wrote, it was a letter of the alphabet.  I 
just couldn't resist it.

Hahaha.. XD

Could turn out to be an exciting story..

What does the letter stand for?
How does it stand?
And why?

Questions demanding answers...

O_o

The source?  Its just a white inverted box with a bumps normal, a box 
with a wood texture, two red cylinders (forgot to assign them a 
texture!), a text object, and a light source.  Its an incredibly simple 
scene.  But if you really want it...

camera {
	location <3,3,3>
	look_at <0,2,0>
}

light_source {
	<2,2.3,1.5>, rgb 1
}

box {
	0,
	<5,5,4>
	pigment { color rgb 1 }
	normal {  bumps 0.1 scale 0.05 }
	inverse
}

box {
	<0.1,2,0.1>
	<4,2.05,2>
	pigment {
		wood
   		turbulence 0.1   // should have some!
   		scale 0.02
   	}

}

cylinder {
	<0.5,2.0,0.5>
	<0.5,0,0.5>
	0.05
	pigment { color rgb <1,0,0> }
}

cylinder {
	<0.5,2.0,1.7>
	<0.5,0,1.7>
	0.05
	pigment { color rgb <1,0,0> }
}

text {
   ttf             // font type (only TrueType format for now)
   "crystal.ttf",  // Microsoft Windows-format TrueType font file name
   "A",      // the string to create
   0.25,              // the extrusion depth
   0               // inter-character spacing
   rotate 35*y
   translate <1,2.05,1>
   pigment { color rgb 1 }
}
