love to know how you made the mold for the ring ...also id try to use a reflective map on the rounded stone..maybe use a rainbow texture in zbrush as a map..

Actually H, ZBrush is my hobby...By profession, I'm a gemcutter and graduate gemologist... :D ;) !
But that is a nice ring design, and looks like it would be very comfortable...(I'm a professional jeweller as well...)

(This is a site I've posted before...It offers DXF actual cut, gemstone models...Check it out, and email me at stoneboat@lightspeed.ca, if you want some tips on making them look like real gem materials... :) )

WOW S. that was very nice from you! Thanks. I gave it a fast look and it´s amazing the realism you can achieve with practice and some knowledge.
But now is time to go bed(0.30am)and tomorrow I´ll try to create something with the Pacific black pearl(my favourite one!)

That is really awesome modeling Houdini!!

Beautiful jewelry! The pearl looks just right, I think. And your creation of the setting was inspired. I also really like the first pic that you posted, with the ring in its box. Nice satin effect for the cloth, and expensive look to the box itself.

Thanks guys! I´m really happy that you liked it.
I did the ring again(not extactely the same)to save a ZScript to offer you. Hope you like it my friends. :)
