I was inspired by JRG and Tor's fantastic isosurface pictures, so I finally
started experimenting with megapov. I have to say I'm impressed, I had no
idea it was so powerful. This object is just a weighted average between a
bozo function and a sphere function, rendered with radiosity.

Neat huh?

Ahem, please keep this server's newsgroups tidy, don't pollute this

It is certainly, very neat. More than that: very real!!

You know, I hadn't noticed it looked like dirt. You're right, I'll have to
find a way to use that :)

Well, as real as a spherical blob floating in blue space can be :)

Nice, but probably quite slow, how about an animation :-)

It looks a bit like some kind of foam, if you switch on gravity again...

It looks very much like splashing liquid, but the bumps suggest it's
rigid.  I'll have to say insulating foam, ya know, the kind in a spray
can that solidifies when it comes out.
