Jeff,

If you wanted to take the trouble to learn to use POV-Ray ray-tracing
program, you could scan an actual picture of yourself, turn it into a
POV-Ray surface, and wrap it around a minifig head.  Maybe I'll try this for
my son.  He'd get a real kick out of it.

So...I was thinking...(dangerous occupation, I know)

If and when I ever get my LEGO page up and running (sometime after I get

my scanner working again and take some pictures of whatever I'm working
on at the time - alternately, if I ever spring for a digital camera), I
think it'd
be really cool to have a minifig that looks like me.

Has anyone else ever done this?  (I saw the LEGO bride & groom, which
was partially what inspired this.)

Has anyone ever seen a red-bearded minifig with glasses?  (If not, I'll
just
dig up one of my red-bearded faces without glasses, it'll have to do.)

Any female minifigs with glasses (for my SO?)
