Heh. :) Just gotta do it sometimes.

Not necessarily... but maybe redder, along with the flames.
Maybe also add a dark burn patch on the surface under the flames as well and
some smoke or absorbing media in the flames to give that sooty effect.
And if you're ambitious enough, something like:

for the circular blade.
Nice scorpion :) That maniac Rune would have animated the thing - with an
automated script by now... :O

Hmm, tricky. I'd say yes except you might lose some of its detail.
Is the duck the referee? :)

Thanks for comments.
I forgot to credit the duck to Lutz + Kretzschmar (cica 2000) (has
featured in many of my renders - just love it)
No excuses, but the "victim" machine was a bit last minute. I like the
idea of charred surface and I agree the flame doesn't look right. The
metal would have a different colour flame (less of a wood fire) .
Will investigate the motion blur. I have a helicopter that always looks
as if it would not be in the air with the speed the rotaors appear to be
going.
... cheers Bob

Narrower and brighter.
Or, same size, but with a very high density in the axis, a sharp drop
then fading to zero at the edge.
Try this :
cylindrical{colour_map{[0 rgb 0][0.97 rgb 1][0.97 rgb 20][1 rgb 100]}}
You'll need to rotate and translate so that the pattern match that laser
path.

For your information: motion_blur has been re-introduced by Clipka in
the UberPOV version under the name Blink. See:
https://github.com/UberPOV/UberPOV/releases/
Worth a try I am sure ;-)
Now that I think of it: The best and most up-to-date Docs for all
versions of POV-Ray are those on the wiki page. See:
http://wiki.povray.org/content/Documentation:Contents

unlikely I will ever get over being forced to use a certain folder, right or
wrong;and being locked out of any GD folder on my own puter.
progress is bad, greed is bad.
win 10 is a virus,
if you cant stop updates ... they can kill you anytime they want.
so I took the laptop back to Fry's and asked them to install win7. they said,
100 bucks. I said, this is a warranty replacement, and I never bought win10, I
bought win7. price was now 0. and they wont u give the disk, lame lame. would
not make a USB, lame lame. so I made my own boot USB with win7 install.
its like a war with the greed mongers. get mirc and go on undernet.
I can send you anything I got DCC. its called freedom.
what if they gave a war and no one showed up?

I think that the glow feature was a special case for the finish that
have been removed and is now done using emissive media.
IIRC, there was no glow feature in any of the 3.6+ versions.

3.63 has glow{},

but I did correct it, its in utilities.

Been fighting the war for 20+ years now.
Nice to meet you, Martin. You're my favorite Martian. ;)
So much to learn - and everything we thought we knew is ... :O
Glad you're having a good time and rendering things with POV-Ray.
Welcome.

Ah the welcome, thank you. Good to meet you QueBall -- Sense of Belonging
appears twice (that I know of) in the rainbows.
Sense of Belonging is the most profound Ultimate Need, the lock and key need is
Meaning. Sense of Belonging is also the 7th Land of Enchantment.
Spiritual Hunger is real, among the few. It is a hunger to know the Enchantment,
of 4 things to hunger for ...
The most profound Land of Enchantment is Imagination ordered by Beauty.
Knowledge that's only available in Mars academia.

If you use a news reader, like thunderbird or FreeAgent (does that still
exist?) you can delete the message. With the web interface, you can not.
