Here we go, just Judge the Renderquality in this threat.

Going by the Quality of the render and not the design (that's to hard to decide),
I Voted for you Exe, The only Small issue with it that i can see is a slight bit of pexelation around black/dark gray colours when it suddenly shifts to white or a lighter tone, it mostly noticable around the green parts.
Im only bringing it up because i know you would want it to look perfect, otherwise i would'nt bother,  :lol:
But its an awesome job none the less  :D

i would love to see some more renders of it though,
Some shots from different angles, But i would'nt blame you if you dont want to, rendering a scene using reflection/refraction  plus the lighting etc takes my computer a good 30-45 minutes :(, But that is on a 60k+ model

That's nothing. Mine with reflection + area lights takes less than ten minutes. What really extends the rendering time is adding reflection blurs (note how the reflection gets less precise as an object becomes further away from the "mirror"). Talking about maybe an hour or so. Though this is *without* radiosity, adding that just sends the render time through the roof, but it's okay because the result is just too whited out with mine.
