I don't get it, how does it NOT look like shining glass... i mean if you have a glass orb under light, you will see a glare. idk how it looks in your eyes, but this is how it looks, and it looks correct. But not just my opinion! Added a poll do w/e

I was showing how the top of it was done. Remove the glow and it would look more round.

Looks either oversharpened, or it's just not a good circle.

I think I found out why half of clicks glass orbs don't look like glass. I sent him a picture of a 3ds max model, the image was a little dark but you could easily see it. So I brightened it and when he looked at it he could only see the little shiny part and thought it was a metal rod.
