Hi!

I started to make a next image! This is a simple cup of coffee, but the one
piece of a great project. This WIP version of picture rendered in POV-Ray 3.7
beta 29, render time: 23min (Q6600 CPU).

The wood texture is awesome.

Very nice start (however, that handle looks very difficult to hold on to).

There are a couple little details you can do to inprove the real appearance of
the object:

-add 'miniscus' to the coffee surface (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meniscus) so
it doesn't look flat and lifeless.  This is a slight detail that can be easily
ignored when modelling, but for some reason our brains don't ignore when
looking at it

-make the logo bumpy, like it is painted or screen-printed on.  Have a look at
the technique I have used for this in the past.  It should be easily adaptable
to handle multiple colours.

Thank you Trevor, good ideas. The "miniscus" is ready, but too small. But the
bumpy logo is professional solution! Thanks for the link...
