Hi all,
This is an answer to a mail posted by Akira in roottalk:

Hello ROOTers,
Is there any example of human body modeling like tutorials/lego.C ? I would like to put a person in my detector geometry as a scale reference for a presentation. It is hard to build a person from scratch.

Well, we don’t have an example… Since many nice geometry examples came from users I thought it would be nice to promote their contributions better: The nicest human body geometry example posted to this thread (macro + picture) will go into /geom tutorials (well, in absence of a better prize 
)
First candidate already posted to roottalk: Christian (well, not the most common user profile I would say

Attached is a script that draws a 3D man using TMarker3DBox objects.
The man is 180cm tall (a “standard” man - at least in Northern
Europe 
, and faces in the direction the positive z-axis (and obvious
extension would be to make this a parameter). It’s really simple.
I’ve also attached a picture of the ALICE ITS, FMD, T0, V0, beam-pipe,
and absorber nose with a man in it, so that you can get a fell for how
it looks. The image is not that high in resolution to save band-width.
Yours,

Of course everybody is encouraged!
Please post your man here until 12 November. A poll will be opened after.
Thanks a lot to all contributors !

, so I had to make a small derived class that does allow rotations around Y.
. Perhaps we could allow TMarker3DBox to be rotated around the Y axis? Perhaps there’s some other way to do it?
