New Achievements in Rendering!

I'm not showing you the whole of this rendering yet.  But I can't possibly resist showing you part of it.  It took me a while to work out all of the details, but I'm quite pleased with the results.  I'm also completely thrilled with the bit of chain in the rendering.  What you can't tell from this image is that in the actually rendering, that chain is exactly one millimeter wide.  One!  If you don't have a ruler handy, this is very tiny, and also thinner than a spaghetti noodle.  Why is it this small?  Because I am absolutely insane, and kind of obsessed with making things tiny.  One day I will break down completely, buy a microscope, and spend the rest of my life creating paintings on the heads of pins.  Anyway, this rendering was created for the 2010 Diva Design Competition.  I solemnly swear to show you all the full rendering when the results are announced in June, but for now you can admire my tiny chain links.

  1. This is very good, illustrative, yet graphic at the same time. How large is the piece?

  2. Thank you!

    The little section that is shown is actually a one inch square of the rendering! The full earring is a little over one inch wide and two and a third inches long. (I did a mirrored pair on a 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper.)

    I've got more renderings up under the rendering tab beneath the blog banner, if you haven't seem them yet.
