Diamonds are Forever

I decided to look a little deeper into the material editor in 3ds max one day and immediately regretted it. Discovering a swath of unknown and forbidding looking buttons, I realised how little I knew about it and immediately sought to correct this. What resulted was this collection of diamonds above. I followed a great tutorial that helped me comprehend the basics behind many of the texture elements required for the piece, and began to tweak them myself until I was able to make them gleam just the way I wanted them. While not the most engaging of pieces, they still have a certain charm to them.
