IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 




DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


(Sorry for my bad English...)

I'v been Ray tracing for about six months, but until now I'v always used a 
modeller for the entire scenes.
This is my first trial using POV-RAY script.
Almost each object of the scene was created in Moray, but the placement,
scaling, lightning 
and texture adjustment where done by hand, using POV-RAY editor.

The mice: each mouse is built from 3 blobs:
The head, the body and the tail. That allowed me to use different poses for the
mice.
The eyes and ears are simple spheres CSG's.

The toothpaste and the tooth brush body were modelled in Spatch. The brush
fibers are cones.
The plate is a spheres difference, encircled by smaller spheres, with a radial
normal.

The star soap, the plate and the tap body were modelled with Spatch. the sink
and the bottles are lathe sweeps.
The hand watch is a simple csg of POV primitives.

The idea for the plant was taken from Derek Owens' Plants include file.
I tried to use this great include file with the scene, 
but POV always crushed for some unknown reason. 
So, I had to create each leaf and place it myself.
