A friend's girlfriend studying industrial design told me about her difficulties building a shower.

I had a try myself and here is the result. All textures are self made and none of them includes any image (all of them being procedural or raytraced or both). The girl is a Poser3-result, and was intensely hand crafted after posing (I agree: Poser is evil!). The water droplets are two particlesystems and the flowing water is built from claystudio and by mesh-modelling.
