Thank you very much for the advice, I have been experimenting and forcing the
code to optimize results with high parameters of radiosity and blurring. I'm not
entirely happy, but the smoke coming out of the processor tells me this is all
you can do before I call 911.
I leave two images of the final result. One of them with levels and curves
adjusted with photoshop, which for my taste improves the result remarkably and
comes closer to what I would like it to look like. The scene was designed as a
scenario to test a rewrite of an old macro of mine to generate pseudo-toroidal
objects with many, (too many) parameters. The tests soon got out of hand and the
final finishing adjustments took control of the scene before I realized it. I
have used another simple macro that I also wrote to generate something similar
to spheres instead of the simple balls of origin. This one has no name, and soon
I will publish the code of the whole scene for your delight.

I've been testing subsurface too. I got strange artifacts and ended up
deactivating it because I thought it would not improve the scene as it was
planned.

any other suggestion, criticism or comment is always welcome,
a greeting
B. Gymene
