Very nice - the best thing about it is the rocket exhaust...

Care to post the media statements in the scene files group...?

Pretty please?

Ralph,
I too love the rocket exhaust and thanks for posting the source.  I'd like 
to capture that technique in our POV-Ray wiki.  If it is ok with you, I'd 
like to understand what you did (from the source) and post it as a how-to. 
If you would prefer to do that yourself, great or if you would prefer not to 
have it placed there, I understand.

Neil

Neil, you are welcome to put it there so far as I'm concerned... the rocket
flame is not original with me, I found the basis for it on this board
somewhere... I'll try to wrinkle out that reference again.

But, by all means, I will always be glad to share with the POV-Ray wiki...
in fact, I've been meaning to start contributing to it.

Best,

--Ralph
