IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

"There's no intelligent life here," said the head of the away team.

An alien is sent to look for intelligent life and gives up after spending time
in a toy store.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

I have created a human figure out of blobs.  I made two versions with different
textures. One with phongs to simulate plastics, the other with the crackle
pattern in both the pigment and normal.

I then added a box around the plastic character as if it were an action figure.
The front of the box was created in CorelDraw as a transparent GIF.
