This is my first real play with Isosurfaces and I am very impressed. I know
the sky and sea need a little work but I am very happy with how the actual
landscape came out.
Any comments etc....

nice... what is the render time Vs height-fiels time ?
can You send me sources ? just for testing / learning :)

Very interesting. That smooth but pitted look is rather unusual. It
looks like mineral deposits from a hot spring.

Really good for first experiments. It seems somewhat homogeneous to me,
maybe play a bit more with the waveforms or color_maps of the pigment
functions.

Looks like volcanic rock of some kind.

I have not got a comparison but I believe that isosurfaces can take
longer (especially at high quality settings) but the extra detail is worth
the time.

I will be posting the source once I am happy with it.

I must admit I had to look up homogeneous :)
but in what way do you mean? The shapes? The colour? or the overall
composition?

I wan't able to pull anything like the image posted, from the code that was
posted.
I'm running the latest release.
Can you post (or email) a complete file, so I can check what's different?

Im not exactly sure what you are asking here as I have not posted
any code as of yet. Once I have finished testing and tinkering I will post
some code.
