I don't really like it. It looks like faked scanline reflection, and not much
3d look.

maybe it has to do with the environment it is in. i like it though. all of
these shapes and forms that Tor has come up with. very neat.

The texture looks somehow strange, maybe try a plain (blurred) reflective
texture and some background stuff behind the camera instead.

I'm not quite sure what "like faked scanline" means, 
but I understand that it's not good.

But I just can't help it:
- I really love shiny metal textures  =(

Anyway; thank you for your opinions.

Yes I now think that maybe I overdid the 
turbulence in the sky sphere pigment somewhat.

And I'm glad you like my shapes. Thank you !

Thank you for your suggestion.

But how can I make such blurred textures ?

like the reflection is just bands of color, there's not really a background...
part of it is the coloration though, even just the hue
know what though, i do like it better with the lights dimmed. and listening to
Oxygene. ;)

But it has been a long time since I've listened to it.
