Ohhh, now I know this beauty very well! I've lost count of the number of times I've managed not to find my take on it. I like what you've done here, it captures the eye-boggling nature of the ridges perfectly.
@dulciknit - yes, took me a long time to get the right thoughts on this one. Very difficult shape and texture to visualise for me. In the end I had to play with it in-editor to get what I wanted. Took ages of fiddlin'.
@netkonnexion Well, it was definitely worth it!
I 'know' exactly the characteristic I want to present but haven't as yet been able to work out the best way to do it. One day...
@dulciknit - I think one of the problems is that it is not a well lit piece. The light comes from several directions. In the end I used a torch to overwhelm the ambient light a bit with some directional light. That helped pick out the ridges/lines better.
