Bruce, I assumed that a diamond was so hard that it cannot be deformed, only cut. Comparing this render to the gem from your previous post, I apparently got it wrong. However, to my reassurance, the result has only become finer. It once again shows your craftsmanship, Buddy!
If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!

Interesting textures deep within the lines - gold thread or city lights from an airplane. While not my favorite, your color combinations here works very nicely: the sharp blue provides an interesting undertone.
