Hey all,
This is a model of my wife's engagement ring I did. I used direct lighting for now, which is why the diamond does not have the brilliance it would in real life.
256 samples per image the stills are resized from large format and took around 4 minutes to bake. The turntable is 250 samples per frame at around 30 secs per frame to render 250 frames.
I will re-render after MLT is impemented. I am going to change the display surface to something different, but I'm not sure yet what I want.

have you tried with path tracing ? it should'nt take that long for a scene like this if you use the supersampling technique ?

Super Sampling is where you render the image at at least 2x what your final resolution is going to be, then de-noise and resize.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
