Use mayavi.mlab. See the documentation for mlab at:
http://code.enthought.com/projects/mayavi/docs/development/html/mayavi/mlab.html
The 3D already looked great with mayavi, but with the (relatively) new mlab
module, it's _really_ easy to use !
More links (but the one above should convince you).

Only possible difficulty is that it's still not readily packaged for all
linux distributions - I picked the development version (pre-3.0 ?) from svn
using instructions from:
https://svn.enthought.com/enthought/wiki/Build/ETS_3.0.0b1/Py2.5/Generic_Any_Any
(see https://svn.enthought.com/enthought/wiki/Install before in case there are
binaries already available for you).
and it works very, very well.
Under windows it's part of the Enthought python distribution.
