Nice post!
Is the wood at the bottom of the wall supposed to look so flat? It's kind
of a glaring discrepancy when compared to the other objects in the scene.
Indeed, the texture of the entire wall object appears to be inconsistent
with all the other objects in the scene.
I'd suggest adding more 3D and shine to the wall and associated objects.
FWIW ...

I admire your fortitude.

So often the case, I know.

You were lucky it wasn't writing to disk at the time. Seems it always is
when my power goes, but now I finally have a UPS to keep going for a short
time.
Comment: the clear plastic dome needs some imperfection, scuffing. Perhaps
also on the other external parts too. Those pacifiers are superb, far as I
know.

The wood surrounding thlatice work needs its texture rotating, and also
needs a finish, I only remembered the finish when halfway through the
render.

The wall is actually very 3D and tactile, but the area lights have totally
flattened it. I had to put that spotlight in the back there te get some
visible relief, but as you say it doesn't cover the whole wall.
Thanks for the comments, it's always good to get the input of another
pover.

Thanks Bob, actually I remember spending two days on that media inside the
glass (not inside the dome, but inside the glass), I think that the
adaptive aa and the higher max trace level that I needed to get rid of
some other problems have made my scrachy and dusty glass go clean,
from the change log:
----------------------------
revision 1.8
date: 2000/08/03 17:21:41; author: sjlen; state: Exp; lines: +28 -18
Put media in the GlassDome. (this took all day)
----------------------------
And you're right about the other plastic part, they do need ruffing
up some.
Creating the dummies was fun, I'd never used negative strength blob
components before, I'm thinking of making a telephone ( a 70s/80s type),
using blobs possibly for my next project.
Thanks for the coments.

The lattice could also use a finish and some depth. Is it metal or wood?

Yeah. It's always frustrating when you ask for comments and don't get any
constructive suggestions ...

The lattice is simply texture{T_Wood3 scale <1,2,1>}, and yes it needs
to be a bit more lively.
I've attached another render, done with aa0.3, no radiosity and no
area lights, I've also put in a point light to bring out the surface
of the isosurface, the spotlight that was on the iso has been removed,
no textures have been tweaked in any way.
And just for Bob I've restored the media in the glass to the way it
was back in August in version 1.8 but one thing that I've remembered is
that I was using standard POV back then and only started using Mega
very close to the end of the development of the scene because I wanted
an isosurface in there, also when I perfected the media the surroundings
were all very plane, just a MidnightBlue background and a Gold box for
the ground, but you may be able to see a difference, don't know if I
can or not.
This render only took 20mins 39secs. 85% compression used with
cjpeg for the conversion.

I can't really. Thanks for trying to show it anyhow.
I like smaller resolutions because they always let the imagination believe
there's more reality, or so it seems to me. Helps that I'm using 1280 by
1024 here at the moment, but looking closely I notice the presence of the
dreaded jaggies.
I just realized how the floor (?) looks more like I table top. I was paying
more attention to the pacifiers and toy before. A hardwood floor of the
likes seen in this group not long ago would go well perhaps, although the
reflection there now goes good with this.

If only they all were (that fast).
