This looks great!

Lovely....

how about blood IN the heart?

Beautiful work on the shine. Great job.

Very good!

The shine and transparency is amazing....A lot of hard work goes in it...Good work....

Great idea with the background! Makes it look very realistic!

thanks for the nice comments!

The detailed model looks good. I also like the colored glass. You could of course add small variations to different channels to make it look slightly worn and thus more realistic. Also, the specularity makes it look more like plastic glass. Easy things to fix though.

But just like another entry in this contest you've excluded one of the more vital parts of transparency - background and surrounding objects. It's not really coming to life with this setup. I can see that it reflects some kind of image, but there's no trace of it in the image.

I think it looks marvelous just the way it is Good work!

Excellent job

Spectacular! Good job!

Congrats for your first place, Viren!

great work

Well done!! Good luck.

Fantastic!

Fab, great work.

The model and the texturing is nice. I don't know exactly how a hearth is supposed to look like, but I like it.

The dissapoining part of your entry is that you didn't do anything about the background. When it comes to reflections, but especially transparency, a good surrounding, with background and objects will be one of the main factors for making it look good.

Fantastic work.....a very nice entry.....Good luck....

Well done !

Brilliant!

this is a good piece of work

dr. sahab bhut mast kaam hai..

Very nicely done. Transparency and shine are excellent.

Could you explain the render part in maya. Because I am also using Maya but can't render like this... Perfect job. Maya is very difficult 3d program. GL.

Nice reflection!

Congrats for your second place, Victor!
