Comment on Alethiometer by ~Xailia [parent]

I stole the symbols from a drawing of it...

The compass itself is gold, but when I rendered it when it was smooth, it didn't look to good, so I used a hammered gold effect. It's not perfect, but it's better than the first.

That's a good looking compass... must have taken forever to draw all those little pictures.
Only thing I don't like is the spotty metal material... but maybe I'd understand it better if I read the book =)

In the thumbnail the textures look good... I guess it's just the big resolution that was bothering me...

:sherlock:If bread always lands peanut butter side down, then it stands to reason that if you put peanut butter on BOTH sides of the bread, it will hover above the floor indefinately.
I can think of thousands of people who should read Pullman's trilogy....
Beautiful work! =)
