Hi Jennifer, Sorry for not having answered your private note earlier - I'm on very limited time these days. These renderings look ... simply perfect!. I'll also state the obvious: your drill image looks loads better than my drill image! Thanks for (...) (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)

(...) Maybe you should try LDraw Boxer (see: (URL) ) which is a real nifty application that replaces bricks with "hidden" studs for boxes sans studs. Saves a lot of parsing, especially on level 3!

Thanks Paul! (...) There's a reason for that :-) The truck render at 1800x1350 took over two days on an Athlon XP 2000+ machine, and used over a gigabyte of RAM.
