I've been using random walk Metropolis to sample from the (unnormalised distribution) which is defined as $p(r)\propto e^{-100 r}$, where $r$ is the perpendicular distance of a point in 3D space from the surface of a,the cow:
which generates sample paths over time that look like,
over time.
I want to draw a 3D point plot of all the sampled values where each of the points is a cow shape. I have tried doing this with,
butHowever, it does not scale well to 1000s of points, which is unsurprising given that each cow is a fairly complex 3D graphic. I have tried downsampling the cow's polygon coordinates and using these as markers instead by,
