Thanks for trying. Yes, that's how it should look like. If you have not
tried already, an 'interp shading' removes the grid lines and gives even
better graphics.

For the interested, the implementation was not that complicated. The
algorithms are well documented in the OpenGL literature (e.g. "Red Book"
OpenGL [1]).
