Coffee Mug & Steam

This is another in the series of scenes that were imported from a 3DS file and rendered directly with no changes necessary. Of particular interest in this image is the simulation of steam rising from the mug; the steam is actually a number of transparent polygons. Also, the silver material of the spoon is simulated using a spherical environment map.
