Oh man! When I finished CG school and got hired at Softimage as QA(1998), these 
were some of the tests that weren’t scripted yet and we had to do those on all 
three platforms(Win,Unix,Alpha) every morning and then approve the build. This 
screenshot was the back of a creature that we had to loft with nurbs and yes, 
the PPGs went through several designs.
Stephen, another memorable test scenes is the bouncing martini olive which was 
mainly used to test Twister! ;) Any image of this somewhere?
