Nice. I would play around with the camera angles to get better views.
Great for your 1st render though.  :)

It's nice  work , good compostion and the complamentary colours really do a good job. Crit is the background, that diagonal horizon might be better straight.

Make the background black and add a local light in the center of your object and set the light to no shadows and then try it with shadows/ray trace.

Keep the light you have and just add another light in the center.

Really really nice for you first render.

sorry, joe... didn't mean to disturb anyone... :P  i think it's probably down to a difference in colloquial interpretations of that figure of speech.  in my dialect, it's basically synonymous with 'kicks the cr** out of'.  i won't ask what it means in your dialect, it sounds like i probably don't want to know :-\

colloquial differences are such a nuisance, eh?  ::)

Heh heh.  I can't believe how many people have made eggplants from that tutorial.  And I don't even LIKE eggplant!

there was even a competition on the old anim8or.org to make a stylized eggplant.

This is way funny - The topic starts off - "This is my first render, how do you like it."

It ends with a eggplant and ruby robins
