[Fletch]

Nice Pete. Throw some lobster in there and we are golden

lol, yeah I'm slipping.

On another thread there was some gems bieng rendered with some really high render times, so I thought I'd try it also...I like to play.

I ran this for 15 minutes, 20 passes on number 10 preset, could go another 20 mins I think to get rid of more noise, but I do like the results.

Diamond and ruby, used TL textures.

So this will be the new icon for Ruby scripts in the SCF? Cool!
No, seriously, it looks really good. May I ask what materials and lights you used? I've been trying to reproduce the cover of Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon, without success.

Even better, here is the model.

Warning, it's ugly, out of scale and just badly put together, but it works.

[Ecuadorian]

Wow, than you, Pete!

100 passes, about 40 minutes.
