nope. seems like a bunch of nice ideas but the results are not even close in style and "artistic quality" to Kent's photo or the original example from mathematica.stockechange... seems like the only way to have it done by an artist... or maybe combine by hand contours and "fills" generated by the different techniques in that thread... anyway, thanks a lot for the link, whenever I'll be in the mood of wanting to sharpen my artistic sword I'll take a shot at this...

Do you have mathematica installed?

I think a real artist is required for the authentic effect. I asked for the original and was firmly told that it goes into their archives.
There are some automatic engraving algorithms out there you could try.
