"Cyanide Rose"

Hey guys, just a little something I worked on last night. I'm pretty sure its finished (at least for now user added image) It was modeled with Sub-D's, converted to polygons and rendered with Mental Ray.

I might update it if i do anything cool, just give me your comments and criticisms. user added image

I think it looks great, would make a great wallpaper if you jazzed up the text a little, looking a bit plain as it is now.

It is being light by a spotlight emitting photons off to the left side (about slightly to the right of the text I imagine) there are also 2 point lights in front and in back of it which have a linear decay rate. The caustic radius is set to ten, and I cant remember what the caustic accuracy is...

i agree you should fancy up the text though. with all the curvs in the flow possibly edwardian script or curls mt.
