heh, I found this while packing up files for my trip back home from Orange tear and thought i’d share it. I did this about september last year I think one afternoon.
Hope you like it =)

Wow, another great work from one of my idols! 
I love your work man, I am glad to see we still have superb talent around! 
Lighting and everything is well done.
Though not one of your most exciting works.
BgDM
Though this image does surely have great qualities, I’m a little distracted by the strange-looking perspective and the texture on the wall.
Not saying this to break your balls, but I think you rock waaay more with actual characters (concept, modeling AND the final execution).

I’ll reiterate the work is excellent but I do feel that one of your amazing characters could be added. Just to appease the many fans. lol.
Score:
9/10
Yeah I didnt find it too exciting but was kinda fun study with some different things, I think I was playing with multiuple materials on one object to start with, then I added some softbody cloth for fun on a table for the orb thing, then I thought “whoa lets add a white wall and only wood texture on my HD at point in time” =D
Sago: Very true, I should start posting more scenes here (as I have been with couple of test things during orange) I had done 2 years only character modelling/animation/film stuff study, so makes sense to catch up in other areas, these are my plans from here.
Cheers!
man, I thought we had all had this discussion about people posting thier textured spheres in finnished works… oh, no wait I guess its ok…
nice sphere!!!
Yet another good piece comes from LohnC…
At first I didn’t really like the big blank wall talking up so much space, but after looking at it for a moment you realize that it’s got a bump map and detail and that it looks…good! 
Thanks for posting.
Great image, everything is awesome, but the cloth looks too perfect. Maybe it could be off-center a little, and not as stiff. And the camera could be tilted down a little more, just so there isn’t so much of that blank background.
But, scince you made this in september I guess you probably won’t be fixing anything.
I almost cried when I saw the title name. But it turned out being actually very nice, good work!
you know… technically… that is a reflective sphere. But an interesting one at that.
That’s a reflective oval, GET IT RIGHT :<
