Okay, here's an example of what I mean: this is the chest of the figure from my
"Rebirth" IRTC entry. The left is straight "plastic" old-school radiosity; the
right is SSLT using the Jensen skin parameters and averaged diffuse component
(since POV-Ray doesn't currently do rgb diffuse). What happened to his nipples,
etc?? It becomes a sort of embryonic skin...
