Description
A geometrical abstraction in the style of M.C.Escher.
Probably easier to do in 2D than in 3D.
Please do not move the camera :)

lol, yeah. Now try a more difficult one :P I've seen "Waterfall" and "Ascending and descending" done in 3D.

Actually, the waterfall(animated) was used for the background of a TV show. I'd like to reproduce more complicated Escher scenes, but I discovered doing this one (as simple as it seems) that there were many unsuspected difficulties to overcome. For exemple, I had to use gradients of grey on different surfaces to get rid of nasty shadows. But I'm planning on doing some more of that stuff.

I'm not too good with it, but you can try coloring the verticies. This will fake the lighting as well as the colors. With geometry like this, it may be acutally easier than working with lights. I have seen scenes that looke great, but they are rendered with no lights, and no GI, just vertex painting. This pic looks really neat

Cool! I can imagine this wasn't the easiest modelling and posing job... ;o)
