These are absolutely phenomenal, although I think that the lighting obscures
some of the incredible detail shown in your earlier oval box render.  I
think that sphere_sweeps are about the slowest rendering thing in all of
POVRay, including isosurfaces (unless you have max_gradient cranked waaay
up.)  Have you looked at Mike Willams' use of isosurfaces to generate a
weave pattern (I haven't, so I'm not even sure whether it could be modified
for your use)?  In any event, it looks fantastic.
