is an issue with the part libraries for the POV-RAY conversion or what. Any

This may not exactly be what you’re after, but the beauty of raytraced images is
that they can be whatever you want them to be, and they are an order of
magnitude better in quality than those produced by the other programs you

close to those produced by Lego®.
Here’s one of my
attempts. These images are straight out of LPub with no post processing
How would you like yours to look? Perhaps we can help.
