Wow. You're a genius. Will be very helpful!!!

oh my goodness that's lovely tut. I should be in bed resting but I just had to try this one.
I've posted in my gallery full size one

Wow , what an awesome tutorial I can only hope that I can pull one off , and Oma .. Wow , I commented in your Gallery , wonderful . Pure genius you two ^_~

Excellent tutorial Sargon. Really liked doing this one. Here is my first go ( not as good as Oma`s though).

niecly done Goonfella, actually this tut lends itself to a more symetrical base. If you check my example I'd have to really fiddle with the xml settings to get the orbs positioned correctly to have the floor reflect into them in a truer manner. I'm going to give this one another kick at the cat with a symetric floor as its more effective and I'm just not up to doing all the manouvering to get asymetrical done correctly at the moment. and your shadows look better than mine. I think I transparent them too much.

ciao OMA

Another excellent tut, will have a go tonight and see what happens

i will have to give this one a go and see what i can do. Thank you so much for the great tutorial. I know how long it takes to write them so thank you for taking time to write them

best regards,
chad

Here's my try

Excellent ! I love the 3D base and the way you`ve shaded the front.

I didn't know that you will like this tutorial this much, it was a straightforward, no enough effects there just to show the way of doing the reflections that requested by HELEN, but you guys took it to a higher level, great work all of you, I am glad you like it.

Well I think all of the tries are winners. I am amazed how we all come up with such different ideas from one tute. I tried this one once before & failed miserably. Tonight I needed to do something for me & give my poor brain a rest from the recent events.

Here's my effort.


Thanks, Sargon! Brilliant tute!

I finally made a go at this tutorial the image is in my gallery. I have also suggested to lance that he sticky this tutorial because it is great and it is also very explanatory and it shows some good techniques.

Here's Mine.......

Thanks Sargon.
