The blocks in that image were created using none of the methods mentioned
above. I wrote a macro to create "eroded" bricks as mesh2 objects -
basically a 'rounded' cuboid made purely of triangles which can then be
perturbed using pigment functions not dissimilar to those used in
isosurfaces.

I just need to tidy this macro up and then I'll post it. :-)
