jakerupert Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Hi folks, In order to distract me from my lightingtests, I did this version of the Nibelung Ring, that Alberich forged out of the Rheingold which he had stolen from the Rheintöchter (mermaids). This Ring grants him the greatest powers (worldreign and so on ), but at the same time curses him to live without love forever. The curse is symbolized by the dragon Fafnir devouring himself out of greed. Besides of its incredible magical power, this ring holds some additonal close combat weaponery: a poisonous sting and some extractable razorsharp (mermaids) fins. http://www.jostkeller.de/dreid/testing/Rhe...dRing111011.zip Crits welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted November 12, 2010 Hash Fellow Share Posted November 12, 2010 I love that! I like that it animates. I was very much a Wagner "Ring" fan when I was a teenager. -I think the needle would need to be on top or the wearer would be sticking himself, no? Or maybe it should stick directly down out of the bottom. -Are those wings on the top? I think those need some thickness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it should stick directly down out of the bottom. But anyway,I leave it that way for the time being, because it looks sharp and Alberich uses it in my scene,when the ring is off the hand anyway. -Are those wings on the top? I think those need some thickness. These are stylized (mermaids)fins ( as they are the watch(wo)men of the Rheingold. They have some small thickness, but probably need some bumpstructure...

I was thinking they were like the wings on a Valkyrie helmet You should have some way for them to fold over and conceal the stone on the top and then unfold away from it so laser beams can shoot out.
