I don't know Amapi (just tried it a view month ago) but generally a modeler 
will allow you to make organic and / or realistic looking objects. You 
can't do that with POV-Rays SDL. Most images posted at p.b.i are nice, some 
are quite impressive, but none are really realistic. In my opinion the SDL 
is not very well suited to build a scene. Not worth mentioning that this is 
a very unnatural way to create something. So if you just want to create 
some kind of 'interesting' images, SDL is okay. If your goal is realism, 
you should forget it.
You mentioned to code realistic figures. There are lot's of other things you 
can't really do with SDL.
