  I have asked politely in the alt.ascii-art for the 5f6 electron cloud
dot picture. Something more elaborate than my picture below.

LP                         94th ELECTRON OF 231PU
               Very crude dot picture of 5f6, 94TH ELECTRON

        One of those dots is the Sun with 9 smaller dots around it.
Look in a chemistry textbook or quantum physics textbook of the
electron cloud dot picture.

Perhaps the simple answer to the lack of response to your polite request is
that none of the ascii-artists have the required knowledge of nuclear
physics or chemistry to do what you ask. Are you surprised ?  :-)

Bye,

Okay, I will try to post some books with pages of pictures of the
electron cloud of atoms. This has the handicap of asking an artist to
check out those pictures in a library near by.

But the 5f6 should not be that difficult because you only have to do
half and then it is a 180 degree symmetry for the other half.

Let me try to describe the below crude picture of the 5f6. It is a
cross section.

                     _ _
                    (:Y:)

                  ::/.|.\.:

        One of those dots is the Sun with 9 smaller dots around it.
Look in a chemistry textbook or quantum physics textbook of the
electron cloud dot picture. 

The middle is circular with a equiangular Y. The lines are the nodes
and this middle portion looks like a steering wheel. The exact center
is a node and it is where the nucleus is. It would be nice to have sort
of like a enlargment of the nucleus showing 137 neutrons and 94 protons
as balls, but that is quite a lot to ask. The dots of the 5f6 electron
cloud are densest near the nucleus and become sparser the farther out
from the nucleus. There are 6 lobes but all I could do was have 6 lines
to indicate the lobes.
The dots further out are to represent the galaxies. A closer-in look
then the dots become stars. And a microscopic view close in of the 5f6
would show the Sun as a dot with the planets around it. And the highest
resolution would be life atoms and elements on Earth as the dots (mass
of the 94th electron of 231*94).
  I am asking too much of ascii but I could be nicely surprized. 
  And let it be known to any potential artist. That there is alot of
leeway in drawing the 5f6 because noone due to the Schroedinger
Equation can draw an exact 5f6. All drawings of the 5f6 are crude first
approximations.
  And let me add that in one book on spectroscopy the author I believe
was White with someone else shows a page with the 5f6 (using spinning
tops). And the ironic nature of this page is that it shows s, p, d, and
f orbitals. It shows many of these orbitals. But of all the orbitals
there stands out the 5f6 and what is so bizarre is that of all the
pictures on that page by White is that the 5f6 looks closest to a human
being. Could it be that the 5f6 of the Schroedinger equation has the
form of a human being?
