I've wanted to try building a gyroscope, one of my favorite childhood toys, in Bryce for quite some time. This is my first attempt at it. If I could bend the string it is riding on, I think it would be more convincing.
More stiff competition for the contest, if you ever wanted to change your entry...excellent 3D work and very realistic looking imo...as for the string maybe you could warp it ever so slightly?...but that might throw everything else out of whack so don't listen to me...except that this is extremely well done.
