Dear TeX and PSTRicks Users,

I would like to draw ** a 3D ball filled gradually to achieve the 3D effect**.
How it is possible using PSTricks?

I used the macro file 'gradient.tex' but I could not get the needed result.

I have tried the simple:
but of course it is not the picture I need.
The problem is that 'gradient' macro fills the region gradually but the
lines of "the same intensity of color" are **straight line**.
How is it possible to force the gradient macro to have the lines as e.g.
ellipse or other curve ?

I know there are other ways to achieve "the 3D effect in ball" without using
the gradient macro: just simply filling and draw proper ellipses but

Could someone suggest some solution ?
