Cool stuff.
I've never been able to get to grips yet with POVRay, but I've played
around with Blender, Wings3D and RealSoft3D. I really need to spend some
time learning these kinds of apps. Maybe this week, while I'm on holiday,
I'll try to get the basics under my belt.
So many apps to play with, so little time....
