My first subsurface test. The fact that it does not resemble
a strawberry at all only shows how easily I get sidetracked ;)
I couldn't quite get rid of the graininess even when increasing
subsurface samples to 500, and AA also didn't seem to help. In the
end I opted for 100 and used weak focal blur to smoothen it a bit.
Rendered in 25 minutes using 12 threads (and no I wasn't patient
enough to try this with radiosity enabled).

LOL ... can relate to that! Hey but sometimes getting sidetracked
produces some interesting results ... I like it!

Not too bad ... raytracing and patience definitely belong in the same
sentence.

You are right it does not resemble a strawberry, for a start
strawberries are red or strawberry coloured. :-P
It does have a certain charm in a "I don't want to be in the same room
as it" way.
Is it an isosurface, blob or what?
It's worth continuing with, I think.

It wouldn't be so bad if I could get some work done while rendering.
But then I'm constantly peeking to the povray output, checking progress,
admiring the newest pixel block ...

Well I actually DO have a strawberry WIP that is red, see attachment ;)
But it's mostly an elaborate texture on a plain blob and nothing much
remains of the strawberriness when normals are removed as happended when
adding subsurface so I ended up with the other test scene. Not sure I
want to render a bowl full of isosurface strawberries, though ...

Yes Iit could be called repulsive sphere over checkered plane ;)
> Is it an isosurface, blob or what?
As you found out by now, it is an isosurface (sphere - leopard).

Well let's see if I make it back to the strawberry first ;)

A bowl full of isosurface strawberies... It won't be THAT long to render
as only a few will be fully visible, some only partialy visible and
replacable with a simple blob, and many totaly, or almost totaly hiden
that could be totaly removed or relaced with simple primitives.
