Is this close enough to what you need?

http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.images/thread/%3Cweb.5a31dcc89a8d03875cafe28e0%40news.povray.org%3E/

First I defined a "sine sphere" - just like I assume you've accomplished, but as
a function.

Next I made an isosurface using that function, but replaced y with and equation
to non-linearly scale it.

Then I stretched it by scaling <1, n, 1>

Then i just made a leg with a sphere sweep, and used it 3 times, rotating +120
deg for the next two.

Hope that helps - post your results (and code) in the binary images thread!

Good luck!
