Description
This is NOT a photo!!! It's a DIGITAL, 3D piece. So many people confuse this for a photo.
I designed this pendant in a CAD/CAM class at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). CAD stands for “computer aided design” and CAM stands for “computer aided manufacturing.” The CAD program I used is Matrix and I rendered with V-Ray. There is a blue version of this pendant at [link] !!!
Matrix is a program made especially for jewelry designers. If you want to see beautiful jewelry designed and rendered with Matrix, please go to [link] .
The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) is the best school of gemology in the world. It’s the global leader in gemological research, the world’s most respected gemological laboratory, and has done many contributions to the industry. GIA also has several schools located in different countries. Its website is at [link] .

I'm sorry, but unfortunately I can't help because I made this in 2009 at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), and I no longer have access to their programs or machinery.

This is awesome! I'd like to ask "Permission Of Use" for the International Valentine's Day issue! All proper credentials would be given, of course. So I have 2 questions for you; 1) May I use this image, and 2) What country are you from? Also, take a look at my page here on DeviantART. I went international for Halloween, too... That issue came out awesome! Hope to hear! ~Drew Henry, Founder [link] . P.S.: If you grant me permission of use, could you possibly email me a version without the watermark? If-so, that can be sent to: TheBostonSpectrum@Gmail.com. Cheers!!

Wow~ Here for 21 years, and your dad lives here?! That is odd. But cool! I wouldn't mind seeing France... Always wanted to visit Europe. So you don't like the idea of removing the watermark, eh? That's interesting. I only say that because your "art" is jewelry. It's not a 2D print that someone could steal, per-se. I mean sure, someone could take the image, but they can't "wear" the image... Know what I mean? At any rate, sometimes I will accept watermarks, and other times I wont. It all depends on how intrusive the watermark actually is on the image. In your case... I'm sorry but... I wouldn't use it, as the watermark is too intrusive. But don't get me wrong, I understand your concerns completely. And yes, The Boston Spectrum is an online art magazine... Online ONLY. There is no printed version. The Boston Spectrum is on both Facebook as well as deviantART, and that's it. Well~ I don't really know what else to say, except I'd hate to see you NOT participate. I really am impressed by your craftsmanship. It's all up to you, my friend. But I can promise you this; The Boston Spectrum would only use your image in the "submissions" part of the magazine. I would NOT use your image for anything else. If you decide you would like to participate and remove the watermarks... Or perhaps place them in places that aren't so intrusive... Once again, you can email me at: TheBostonSpectrum@Gmail.com. Cheers, and be well! ~Drew

the metal is a bit to perfect to look real in reallity it has various variations of specularity,though... the render went pretty well I can tell that's what you wanted

Really beautiful. You really did have me thinking that it was a photograph for a second there..
But really, you did this with a program? That's amazing; it really does look so real...

Ahh! This picture is amazing! It stinks that one side of my head can tell it's real, while the artist side is saying it's not because of little things I can't describe. >.<
Amazing piece!! <3

Thank you for your comment, but I already mentioned in my artist’s comments the program I used. I designed this piece with the CAD program called Matrix. CAD stands for “computer aided design.” I also used the program V-Ray to render.

Amazing. Beautiful.
Just wondering, how long did this take you? (I guess about 100000 hours xD)

Thank you! I cannot remember exactly how long it took me to design this complex jewelry piece. However, I know I designed it in my CAD/CAM class. CAD stands for “computer aided design” and CAM stands for “computer aided manufacturing.” Students were very busy every school day, so we did not have much time to work on personal projects. For this reason, it took me weeks to finish designing this piece.

The "Brotherly" bit threw me off.
I actually did try to look on your page, but found no confirmation either way.
I beg your pardon. ^_^
