This variation was sparked by a "happy little accident" I made while working on an animated tribute to Joe Baker's design titled "C". I was working on getting the white outline of the glass material just right, when an accidental connection from the output of a Fresnel node to the -color- input of the Cycles glass material turned my whole design idea inside out. I love how well that awesome mistake sparked a new "Dark World" variation of the same animation.

You should totally look at the "Light World" variation of the design, because you know it's going to be good news:

I've also posted a gallery of the iterations on this design on Imgur, so you can see how some ideas came and went through the iterations on the design. I know that I always enjoy studying the processes of other designers, so it would be cool to to know what you think of my process too! :)

Again, shout-out to Joe Baker, who created the original design which inspired me. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your original design. :)
