IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

At an exclusive retreat, a young woman experiences a a therapeutic "stone massage".
Hot and cold stones are placed along her spine.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

I was trying to do the whole thing in Poser, but when I had troubles I reverted 
to the renderer I know best (POV -now at 3.6).  The side lights are red and blue, 
in an attmpt to emphasise the hot / cold nature of the massage.

The towel has a "Tux" logo, designed by Larry Ewing. < lewing@isc.tamu.edu >
My attempts at a "fluffy" towel (ie. hair /fur) were a miserable failure, so I
just used bump maps.
