ring

just wanted to know what ya’ll thought of my ring model…

looks good, but something seems wrong with something.
any ideas?

I have an idea, it seems that the ring is emitting light.
Either there is emitting happening or there is some
ambience. Or are there inverted colors/negative out
of positive in post pro?Radiosity?

there is a big black spot in the middle of the ring, I think that if you were to lighten up that area it might just be about as good as it could get :wink:

I think what I’m seeing is that funkey line going across the nearest faces of the ring. what would cause that?

Very nice, i like the… uhh… hmm… (We need to invent a word for this) The… feeling… of the… it…

I think it is goldenly delicious!

Hello clone dadd, If you ask only about the model, I think it’s pretty good, though some lines are surrounding it which makes it difficult to see whether the ring has exagerated thickness or is it just the texture ? light needs some fixing too.

while ring model itself isnt something you could talk a lot about,

the material/shader and light setup is quite interesting.
specificaly the glow around the ring along the ground is different.

what is the ring for? just curious i am jewelry designer. maybe i can
help you…

the model is too simple to be interesting.

is this a photon map? the render seems very strange, like you’ve created the vignette effect in photoshop, or just posted a photon map.

what kind of environment is the ring supposed to be in? what are you trying to acheive?

Well, a ring model is not hard to make, actually, it is very simple.

It is the render that is interesting. It is a very different look then any thing else i have seen, yet i like it very much.
