That's the problem when you try to skip CSG  :-)
If you can make image maps of those separately I'd say there's a chance of
doing it using the 'image_pattern' in MegaPov.  Having just been checking
that out again it's no doubt plausible for making finish changes at each
texture in the final 'texture_map'.  Hard part would be creation and
application if it's spherical and not planar.  Well, maybe not real
difficult.
