First rendering... Yeah right; looks like you're a pro with POV-Ray! Damn, I
can't even render a nice sky...

At first I saw your model and thought, hmmm... doesn't look very interesting.
BUT, then I saw the .dat file, and wow! I really like how the pilot's chair is
attached to the gun, and everything seems so compact! All you have to do now is
add details (and more weapons) to the legs, and body. Also you could switch the
round "bubble" canopy with the more polygonal Aquanaut's canopy (it'll make it
more utilitarian). But it's your choice. Either way it looks more than
appropriate for mass-production, and BrikWar mass-ground-assault... ;-)

Can't wait to see what else you got!

BTW, I tried to get ground fog on this.  But I couldn't get it to look right.
It was either behind the model, or there was no top to the fog.  If any • POV-Ray
gururs would be willing to look at it, I can email the .pov file.  Thanks.

(...) The sky was actually pretty easy. It was really just a cut-and-paste from the documentation. I've included the pertinent part below. Most of the work was done by L3PAO (I think that's the right letters :-). I added the sky and ended up (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
