He looks towards the camera in the beginning, and then turns his head
forward.  I think I want to turn his head even more towards the camera
in the beginning to emphasize the effect.

Yes, I agree.  I think there may be a little to few of the smoke
spheres.  Perhaps I should make them a little bit more dense.  But more
smoke prolonges the render time even more!  POV-Ray is capable of
producing even better smoke, but I don't have the experience needed.

Thanks for the comments.  I think there is a huge undiscovered potential
for making POV-Ray animations of L3P'd LDraw models.  I hope to see more
of it!

Fredrik
