Thank you Gilles, but that is the technique I'm
already using for this image (and the last one I
posted).
The difference is that I'm adjusting the slope
direction vector for each triangle in the mesh,
in order to avoid the inaccuracies Rune refers
to.

Rune, I've just shown that it can be done accurately with meshes.
I'm quite sure that it can be done with isosurfaces too.
(And maybe with blobs as well.)

Ok, then I'll try it.
