IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


When I'd finished this I was in two minds whether to send it at all - I suppose
it doesn't really hit the 'fun for onlookers' part of the topic but maybe it
hits the 'intended to be fun...' part.

Punch and Judy are colourful and funny, but also rather horrible. I can remember
being a bit scared of the puppets. This is a child's-eye view.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


Poser for the puppets' faces and vests, and PoseRay to export them to POV-Ray.
Everything else is POV-Ray. The puppets' hats and collars are isosurfaces. The
curtains are an isosurface. Punch's stick is also an isosurface (to get the
stripe). The hands are blob objects.

I have zipped up files with POV-Ray code in.
