Yes this works fairly well in Poseray, although with some limitations
indeed. Displacement mapping is probably the best option.
A very exciting tool at this moment is Silo 2.0, currently in beta version,
which has a powerful displacement painting tool. Drawback is that it is
currently only available to Silo 1.x owners. However, the price is
acceptable for what is offered and the learning curve is smooth. See

Otherwise, as said already above, isosurfaces would do the job, but here the
object is a mesh so, I don't know how to go from there.
