Crystal ball

This was a fun project as part of the online CGI training I am currently partaking in. The subject matter is not quite my thing, being a Christian, but I learned a lot lot about materials and shader networks, UV mapping, amongst other things. Everything in the scene I modelled from scratch, apart from the tree stump which is a photo scanned model. This was rendered using Eevee so it can render faster and will also help if I decide to animate the scene. The quality could be improved further if I was to use Cycles to render the scene. I may make an animated camera on this scene, to bring some life to it, if I get time to do so.
