The gloves

Enough talking about the painting, let’s get to the painting already! Or at least the 3D model.

I worked on the gloves this evening, and fixing the diamond material.

The shape isn’t complete yet, but it’s a good start.

I have realised the diamonds don’t look much like diamonds because the shapes of the facets are too simple. If you have a look at the inside of the glove you’ll notice that it looks more diamond-like because the facets are more complex in that area, and the light entering into the diamond refracts differently.

I’ll need to revisit the eyes, genitals and claws to make the facets slightly more complex.

The thing is though, I’m looking at this last image and the diamond isn’t transparent. The facets are just mirroring the environment. I have more work to do!
