Very impressive sense of scale - it really has the feeling of being huge,
though I'm not quite sure why :)

Cylinders and spheres (for the joints between cylinders), the macro
that generates the spiral will either create a mesh "skin" or a
cylinder and spheres framework.

I don't think it was part of the Friday series, the original image
took way too much effort to be an afternoon job :-). (But MegaPov's
media and increased processor power means that the updated version
only takes a couple of hours to render.)

Do you have preference for a colour? I might try grey, to simulate
ground fog, but I'm worried the image might loose something. (The
sky's already gone from colour (in the original) to grey to improve
the colours using radiosity.

Keep it yellow, I don't care. Who ever said corrosive gas is bad? (That sounds
sarcastic, but it's not.)

It's only minutes away from finishing the final render in grey!!! I'm
thinking of trying different colours, (I can't of hit the right colour
first try!)

Blue would be good, it'd look really cold, have a gradient from deep
blue to almost white.
