Description
Hiya,
FYI: I started off trying this scene in Bryce but nothing looked nice except the diamonds. I moved to Poser and everything looked nice except the diamonds. No matter what I did, they looked like plastic. I did a TON of post work to get the diamonds to look real and I know they are not perfect, but I'm pretty proud of how they turned out. This took me many many hours. I did use a bar of gold and a diamond from the free section here at Renderosity. I used the gold's bump map but all textures and colors I had to make myself. The background was made by me and rendered using the Daz Cyclorama and displacement maps. I'm not sure why I went into so much detail here, but I wanted to show that it wasn't just throwing together three objects and rendering. :-)
Thanks so much for looking and please take a look full size if you have the time. Your comments and favs are always very much appreciated!
Hugs,
Missy

You should NEVER apologize for who or what you are...!!! nice sentiments and image.
Actually I'm glad that you went tech on us. It gives me more information for when I start doing my own rendering. great image, BTW
Hey, it's a lovely image and works well with the verse. I have made a huge improvement in my rendering, especially with transparent/glassy things by selecting the correct degree of refraction. For diamond (which has the highest degree of light bending, causing its beauty) use a setting of 2.419; water's setting is 1.333 Hope it helps! See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_refractive_indices Have a good and Godly day! Vincent
Cool work my Dear!!!!!!!!!!!bravissima!V:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
I agree with the first comment.Never say sorry. It is freedom of speech and expression in art.If I do not believe in what some one else does I do not get offended by if because that is just what they believe and others should feel the same way. I say hats off to you for posting this. I love it !!!
Beautiful image Missy and I love the message so much

Superb work hugs lou x
It´s really a great work!! Well, Bryce is still sleeping on my harddrive too. But onedays...;-)
Very Nice job. Try Kerkythea..... Kerkythea is a standalone renderer, using physically accurate materials and lights, aiming for the best quality rendering in the most efficient timeframe. The target of Kerkythea is to simplify the task of quality rendering by providing the necessary tools to automate scene setup, such as staging using the GL real-time viewer, material editor, general/render settings editors, etc., under a common interface. http://www.kerkythea.net/joomla/index.php
Outstanding!!! I love the song too! :)
