Hi,

I have posted about my jet named the M22 before but I decided that it was time
to post a picture of it.  This render is at 1600x1200 with 0.3 antialiasing and
it took roughly 3.5 days to render.

CREDITS
-thanks to Kevin Loney, Jaap Frank and Tor Olav Kristensen for there isosurface
to mesh conversion include file
-thanks to Rune Skovbo Johansen for his particle system which was used to make
the smoke trail
-thanks to the POV community for all the help whether directly or indirectly
-thanks to the POV-Ray developers for developing such a great piece of software

A little background:
I started modeling this jet 100% in POV-Ray SDL back in March 2008.  I've worked
on it very slowly since then.  The chassis version you see here is an
isosurface, but I also have mesh and CSG versions.  I started this whole thing
because I eventually wanted to make a dogfight sequence but that's a long way
away.

By the way I am aware of the following problems with this render.
-there are 2 artifacts at the engine-nozzle area
-where the cockpit glass meets the main chassis of the plane the blue colour is
suppose to be dark grey
-there is a small shading artifact on the nose cone of the closer plane

All comments and criticisms are welcome.
