Yea, but moreso for more complex transformations. I know that a lot can be done
with CSG, but I was thinking of something more along the lines of the
following:

This was done in Rhino and exported to POV. The rough equivilant in POV (if we
had this feature) would be:
sphere {0,18
scale_map y{
[0.0 <1.0, 1.0>]
[2/36 <5.5/8, 6.5/8>]
[7/36 <5.5/14, 7/14>]
[14/36 <14.5/17.5, 13/17.5>]
[18/36 <16.5/18, 19.5/18>]
[22/36 <15.5/17.5, 23/17.5>]
[29/36 <8/14, 12/14>]
[34/36 <6/8, 7/8>]
[1.0 <1.0, 1.0>]
}
}
