IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

A house made of a blob, causing interesting texture mixes and wall shapes.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

Due to some visits of people I had less time then I would've liked. I first 
created a map of the house, and then tried three different approaches to
creating the blob. This was the final one, which looked fine. I wanted to
add more scenery, but because of lack of time it is just a simple sea (the
garage is obviously for a boat).

As with my other raytraces: the sharp shadows are intentional.
