I think the SIZE of the pill is much more intimidating.

I don't really have anything in the scene to judge it's size by, I think
I'll add a pill bottle for comparison

I was thinking the same thing.

How about a combination of white, chrome, and clear?

An ISO surface might be easier.

Just a pet peeve of mine, but the word is "isosurface". The "iso" 
fragment is not an acronym of anything.
Anyway, an isosurface would probably be very difficult or impossible to 
use for this, a lot of spheres would be better, especially with multiple 
textures. Calculating the positions of the spheres would be tough 
though. Not impossible, but you would probably want to use an external 
program to generate the spheres.

Sorry about that, I know it's isosurface too, maybe I wasn't paying
attention to the spell checz feat yours.

I agree the spheres would be tough, especially if you 'pack' them properly.
To do the first 'layer' wouldn't be too bad, I think, but to 'see' through
the spheres and not get overlapping ones would be tough.  Not sure what the
theoretical optimal packing would be.

I was really thinking of some kind of isosurface that looked 'granular'
(small grains) that might be easier and wouldn't look too bad.
