skybox
- http://ghoulsblade.schattenkind.net/files/pov/skybox1.pov
- http://ghoulsblade.schattenkind.net/files/pov/renderskybox.php.txt (optional, execute using php to generate all six faces with one command)

placing a camera inside an explosion and maybe cutting out the interior gives nice skyboxes for spacegames (like http://sfz.schattenkind.net), see info below on how to generate such explosions/plasma effects
i suggest rendering stars onto the skybox ingame using dots or tiny billboards, this way they will look sharp even if the skybox is not ultra-highres.
space, bright red

see also http://sfz.schattenkind.net/wiki/index.php/Screenshots for more screenshots of those skyboxes in action

clouds
3 cloudy skyboxes

a few samples :

texture generation
- todo : search .pov files for this
- todo : camouflage texture...
- also interesting : kwerkzeug (google)
explosion

random explosion generation
i made a php script that would generated random colormaps and some random turbulence parameters and let it render all night long, producing one explosion image after another, and keeping the sources for later high-detail rendering of the good ones.
this is kind of bruteforcing artwork with enough processor power =)
also there are a few php scripts in there for comfortable viewing and marking the good ones, but you'll have to adjust them a bit.
here are a few samples :
i generated a few thousand of those, you can find them and their sourcefiles (in breed) here :
http://ghoulsblade.schattenkind.net/files/pov/povray_exploder/
(these are hereby released under public domain)
and here's the code :
http://ghoulsblade.schattenkind.net/files/pov/exploder.zip
warning ! requires quite a bit of harddisk space if you keep it running for a long time....
i give no warranty that your computer will not explode during the process ;)
you can also create nice skyboxes from these, see above
