Should I really use color 383 (chrome) for the body
of Jango's helmpack and the details on Boba's?
...
Is there an accepted color used for silver?

Yes.  Color-383 is the "official" choice for "Silver".
Furthermore, the chrome on my Boba Fett jetpacks look
like silver to me.

However, please do _not_ make the default color of any file
anything other than "Main Color" (color-16); do not hard-code
the file.

I ask because the POV-Ray renderings of these parts
are mirror-like.  Way too much reflection.

Urgh.  Yeah, that'd be a problem, all right.
You'll probably need to modify your POV-RAY file,
copying the color-383 write-up, giving it a slightly
new name, and tone down the "shininess" to fit.
I don't know how; post a message to ".cad.ray" asking
for help on this...

HTH,
Franklin

(...) AAAaaaaaah! so that's the reason! (...) Yes, that's VERY helpful. I will fix that immediately, and repost. A question though: Should I really use color 383 (chrome) for the body of Jango's helmpack and the details on Boba's? Neither of them (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
