DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: The pig is made of multiple blobs. One blob make up the body of the pig and the others were for the ears. The tail is made of multiple toruses. The dresser was made form super ellipsoids with a wood texture found in povray include files. The lamp is made of basic shapes that pivot on the their swivels. It was built from the bottom up so when one part swivels the rest at the lamp also move with it. The texture is a chrome found in the metals include file for povray. The window frame was made of rounded boxes. The rounded boxes are created by a include file that I found on the web you may contact the person who created this include file at Email: sumner+@cmu.edu. The tree in the background is made from an include file that I found on the web at http://www.voicenet.com/~ptdawson. The tree is made of randomly placed cones that pivot on each branch starting from the trunk to the smallest branches. The leaves are made of triangle that are randomly placed within a sphere. The Hills in the background are were made in Terrain Maker with a green pigment given to it.
