I don't mean to toot my own horn (pun intended) or anything, but this is
possibly the first
render I've ever had that I am happy with. Yes, there are still things that
can be tweaked (like the corners fo the lips --- those get me every time),
and yeah, the polys show --- but when I got my first glimpse, my jaw
dropped. It's what I wanted. My sketches, my vision of it, it *actually
worked!* I got the computer to do what I wanted it to. Yay!

I'm happy to hear critiques. (Though I'll say that I *am* using smooth
triangles; the edges that show show because I am also using area lights ---
it's a compunded but more subtle version of the jagged shadow effect. If you
have a way to make this less visible, I'd love to hear it.)
