Don't really know what your planing, but metablobs will certinly give some 'wax' like results.

i was thinking of putting a lava lamp in an animation. would metablobs work for something like that?

Ya specificly blobmesh, would get the job done nicely.

Except blobmesh, maybe u could try these plugin:
