I actually had an idea to do something similar to that about six months ago,
but as I started putting it together, it just didn't measure up to what I
had envisioned...  I think I tend to do better when I just pick a direction
and let things happen; much more chaotic and happenstance, which I think is
a quality of all good art :)

thanks for the comments :)  I think, however, I'm just gonna stick a fork in
this one, call it done, and move on to other things... there are other
Splorks out there waiting to be rendered :)

to me it looks a lot like digital noise or compression error in a satelite
t.v. broadcast, what with the somewhat random blockyness.

That sounds nice! (Stick a fork, in a splork, pom-ti-dom-ti-dom, sing
along!)

Hah, you should have been expecting it... it was all over the news
channels...
[Dateline: POV]
As the Splork invasion continued, the checkered squares felt their iron grip
on the raytracing world slipping...  In desperation, they launched a
counterstrike.

I think I understand. But does it mean the results are better, or does it
mean, you just like them more because they don't have to live up to your
vision?

:o)

This is just crying out to be animated.  The great "Splork/Cube"

It looks good except for maybe some texturing issues. I think the shinier 
look of your earlier splorks have a nicer effect. Maybe some radiosity 
could save this image...

Well... maybe it's not the coolest thing I've ever seen... but it's
definitely not half bad! I actually kinda like it myself...

Let's just say I prefer my relationship with POV to be on the casual dating
side - you know, we get together every now and then, hang out, have a good
time, drink a little  wine, maybe even get laid, and everybody goes home
happy and carefree... it's when it becomes a "serious" relationship that all
the headaches (and heartaches) start!  ;)
