The Goddess Sphere

So I was messing around with gears in the 3D program blender for an hour...

Ended up with a sphere with gears all around it...!

And I decided to throw on the gate of time texture from Skyward Sword on the gears...

Then put a reflection map on it...

Then made a cave background (testing out a quick cave creation workflow from another project)...

Added some mushrooms with lights and stuff for more contrast / variety...

Decided to throw link on there...

Got a picture of a night sky with some mountains and threw it on the background, with a reflection map on the bottom for some epic lake scene thing...

Added LIGHT SHAFTS to boost awesome levels two fold...

And I got this. Interesting way to make a scene. Turned out hella awesome, though!
