> Finally an actual scene [...]
Thanks for the kind words everyone - I'm pleased with how this is coming along.
I'll probably do some more ceramics as I'm interested in the myriad of different
form and finishes they can take on, plus I come from a extended family full of
potters (even though I've never been one myself).
Another shot of the same vase, but with a simple leopard displacement function
instead (plus a little Photoshop post-processing).
Thank-you all,
Edouard.

Ooooh....! I really love this one.
What I did not say at first, is that I think that the proportions are very
well balanced, giving the pot solidity and grace at the same time. And of
course, the ceramic glaze is just perfectly chosen (color blends and
texture) to be combined with these proportions.
I am waiting for some Raku from you...

Thank-you again!

I just can't work out a way of doing the crazing for Raku-ware in SDL, but I
think I might be able to do some thick glazed Hagi-yaki...
Cheers,
Edouard.

Yeah, artifacts, slower renders, and rounding errors.
However...
4.5 hours for a cell phone sized print is going to leave you stuck if
you ever want to render at a decent size, but a gallery scene like this
one should be "fixable." Decimation would improve the speed, but you'll
need smooth triangles for that.
Complex mesh scenes may be a dead-end in POV-Ray. Sure, one can have
dozens of plants or cars or people, but that's not the kind of
complexity I'm talking about. I mean that one cannot have dense meshes
of any sort arranged into a complex "scene geometry." At least, none of
us has (to my knowledge) ever figured out how to do it. Or none of us
has a sufficiently powerful computer. That leaves many of the advanced
users chasing their tails. Put some effort into improving the render
time of this simple scene and become one of the truly elite POVvers
creating printable images.
