Well, it's just a start ...
I took me about 45 minutes, because I tried some differend ideas and wanted
to use radiosity on it (to get a little more practice on it). My children
didn't help either :-). It's really quite basic.
Rendertime is 1 1/2 minute on my Athlon 1800+ without radiosity.

The isosurface tutorial is a good point to start, but it lacks one important
thing - it has no sample images for the build in functions. You might want
to have a look at the excellent tutorial at
http://www.econym.demon.co.uk/isotut/index.htm, it is updated to Pov 3.5
syntax and provides an images for each function and more. Helped me a lot.
