Ah, Bryce, my only ray of sanity from packing, packing packing...I've been playing with metaballs and the Bryce 4 Kaliedescope from Hilltop Design, alternately... and found some fun stuff...

You can get Steve's kaliedescope at the links there are two different ones..and in the pic there are 75 metaballs and you squish'em same as you squish a sphere, elongate on the 'X' and then squish on the 'Y' (the one featured has another metaball embedded in the center)...hope that helps
