That's pretty much what it does. Right now it creates an LDraw part whose
front face contains a whole bunch of small squares, one for each pixel in
the image file (except for the edges, those aren't squares). The rest of
the faces of the torso are the same as any LDraw torso.

I also use the LGEO library. I should probably mention that on those pages.
I'm not positive where the arms came from, but everything except the helmet
came from LGEO or is a standard LDraw part. An LDraw-to-Anton converter
would be great.
