    Lots of free crystal and gem models in various formats available here: http://www.3dlapidary.com/HTML/Collections.htm about halfway down the page is a big collection in OBJ format that I've used in Carrara a few times before in case someone doesn't want to try and model their own. laugh

    There's a listing of the IOR for lots of different gems on that same site.

    I could see lots of weapons being created from images using Philemo's cutouts plugin yes

    I just need lots of public domain redistributable images!

    interesting challenge, lovely works, I've been fascinated with "Aztec" crystal skulls since before I was born...

    interesting challenge, lovely works, I've been fascinated with "Aztec" crystal skulls since before I was born...

     

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_skull

    here's one with (2nd) post and (first) no post (bar sig) - not an entry

    I duplicated the skull three times and put them one inside t'other - used fresnel on the top one and on the inner one duplicated a whole lot of bubbles - the lights are set to only illuminate the skulls and bubbles - the mount lighting is from the caustics

    took bludy ages to render - had to reduce it from the original 2000 pixels sized render as I need my computer to do other things....

    post worked one has slight dof and is sharpened in oloneo hdr

    Beautiful work, @Selina, @Headwax, @3drendero, and @3DAge.  I am inspired by sparklies, maybe cell shaded sparklies, like Secret of Nimh?

     

    @Mistara, you have really inspired the community!  yes
