IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

Just a joke.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

Absolutely all objects were modeled in sPatch. This great 3D spline modeller was written by Mike Clifton. 
You can find it at his homepage: 
http://www.aimnet.com/~clifton/spatch.html  
Very good tutorial for head modeling was written by Anto Matkovic. You can find it at his homepage:

All objects in sPatch format you can find in "gochild.zip" file.
Textures for this image were prepared in Photoshop.
64Mb in my Pentium was not enough to render the whole scene. Therefore I rendered it object by object
and assembled them together in Photoshop (without any post-processing).
