Hello,

POV-Ray patterns are built in (bozo et al.). I think that what you need
is renderman-like shading. You could try BMRT, which is free for
non-commercial use. 

(I'm working on patch to incorporate RM SL into POV-Ray, which will
eventually allow such "3D Pattern", but it ain't "real soon now".)
