Re: XDP6 golden Compass
I have been struggling with this problem since yesterday. Finally I found a light bulb and sure enough you guys are correct. But there are so many variables. Does the reflection meet the edge of the sphere, well that depends on the distance the source reflection is from the sphere, viewing angle, maybe the curvature(although I couldn't test this.), etc. etc. etc. as for the fading that seems to be very subtle but it did seem that the brightest area was closest to the light source therefore I maintain that some artistic license is needed for the sake of the picture even if it’s not 100% correct.

Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
