Money Cuts 02 — Crafted Colored Gemstones + Finely Tailored V-Ray Materials Reality-Driven Cuts & Real Material Indices Translate into Authentic Performance in Your 3D Masterpieces 10 Handcrafted Virtual Gemstones— carefully designed for accurate material reflection indexes, mirroring real-world precision cuts. As a seasoned gem cutter and 3D artist, I've perfected these unique gemstones and materials for flawless incorporation into jewelry designs or virtual worlds. Perfect your 3D creations with precise colored gemstones and realistic materials. Rhino NURBS Geometry in Provided Files (Compatible with Rhino Versions 5 & 6) Precise Polygon Mesh Geometry in OBJ Files — crafted from the original Rhino NURBS, using only the necessary number of polygons to achieve each facet's intricate shape Custom VRay Next Gemstone Materials — Each Material Incorporates Unique Optical Properties Based on Actual World Materials: quartz (amethyst, citrine, rose de France, smokey quartz, praisolite, rock crystal, and rose quartz); beryl (aquamarine, emerald, morganite, green beryl, heliodore); topaz (imperial pink, imperial orange, imperial red, imperial yellow, london blue, sky blue, swiss blue); tourmaline (indicolite, rubelite, green, paraiba); garnet (pyrope, almandite, spessartite, demantoid); and cubic zirconia. New materials will be periodically added to all collections as I continue to refine, adjust, and enhance the range Custom Cut/Material Reference Chart Included — Chart Visualizes Material Ranges for Each Gemstone Cut Notes: Resizing Guidance: Always employ uniform scaling when resizing custom-cut virtual gemstones, as each is optimally designed for specific primary materials and ranges of secondary materials. Optical performance relies on accurate facet angle alignment, thus ensuring a consistent result requires using uniform scale. Optical Performance Guidelines: Gemstone materials draw their hue primarily from refraction fog color adjustments: to brighten or darken custom cut virtual gemstones, modify the fog color and multiplier settings within the refraction section of the material (refer to V-Ray Next's complete manual for more in-depth information). Materials appear differently on larger vs. smaller stones due to varying light ray distances; for better visual balance, use a lighter gemstone variation if necessary. Small facet numbers often correspond with small sizes, and vice versa: typically, the smallest working size for facets is around 1 mm, making manual handling impractical below this threshold. Realistically capturing 3D gemstones demands consideration of their proportions. By maintaining accurate relative sizes in your creations, you'll create more convincing 3D models of precious stones.
