Hi Carsten,
I use the preprocessor of kings, L3PAO. It's actually the post-processing that
makes the difference. I use POV with the MegaPOV addon. The addon has a
feature called find_edges. I actually found this feature when Ben Vaughan
actually did his first renderings and mentioned MegaPOV.

Here's the original thread concerning this technique.

Well back to how I did this. I used a 16:9 aspect ratio, which also meant
editing the secondary .ini file.
I had to render the model at 2048x1152 because at lower resolutions the find
edges effect looks a little funky. Take a look at Ben Vaughan's brickshelf
account. I had the same exact problems that he had. I think the two
renderings in red are from Cinema 4D XL.
I then shrunk the image down to 1024x576 to get nice lines. I also used Bram
Lambrecht's legocolors.inc file to replace the colors from L3PAO, which I got
from his brickshelf account.
I've been playing with the technique for a while now, ever since I saw Ben
Vaughan's first renderings. I couldn't afford anything else so I stuck with
POV-Ray.
