I was puttering around and made an eye generator.  I had fun.  It allows you
to customize more aspects of them than you probably would ever want to.  I
may continue to add parts until you can build an entire character, but may
also run out of steam before I get a chance. :)

Looks good.

I had a similar idea a couple of years ago (build a PovRay character out of
free parameterisable parts that could readily be replaced or re-used
elsewhere).

I opted to try for a life-like human head and published my first attempt
earlier this year at
http://www.telinco.co.uk/c_bartlett/povray/head/index.htm

I'm working towards releasing an improved version soon that is intended to
give better results close up.
I tried your eye generator with the head and it worked fine, just needed to
scale by 6.2  and rotate -x*90.

The principles you've used (setting sensible defaults for all the
parameters) line up well with what I'm attempting.

If you would be interested in collaborating in any way, why not drop me an
email
