Very cool! Did you do anything special to the bottom of the car in the ray-trace? In the reflection, it looks almost like you have placed tiles there upside down, but the MPD has plates for the bottom. Or is it an optical illusion? James (...)

(...) Nope. These parts are modeled using lines to represent the corrugations. L3P drops the lines, because POV-Ray doesn't *do* lines. So you end up with smooth parts. There are some other LDraw parts which suffer from similar problems. (...) Not (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
