Anton Raves was making LEGO renderings before Lars made L3P, and even
before Lutz made L2P, so I'd say I'm pretty certain he made them all in
POV-Ray :) You'll notice that he uses a different coordinate system, a
different scale, and a different standard for orienting parts.

Yes it would...but Anton isn't the only one who has made a raytraced
parts library from scratch. So have Lutz Uhlman (the LGEO library) and
Paul Gyugyi (L3G0).

PS: <plug> If you're interested in using Anton's textures in your L3P'd
files, I've created an include file that replaces the L3P colors with
textures similar to Anton's:
