of a picture I saw of a Tokamak (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokamak) a long time ago. But this rendering is way better. I set it instantly as a background on my PC |

My mind is still reeling over the animation! Speechless. The particles as the light source is quite evident. Glad you took the step to continue... it was worth it! |

The previous iteration was a home run; but this one is simply out of the park! The detail and texture is astounding. |

Third time was definitely the charm here Ryan. I love that you don't settle. The lighting is vastly superior on this version and of course the question begs will you now recreate the animation with the new particle lighting? |

After creating the animation it was more evident than ever that the particles were not casting any light open the scene. I had thought to move on but instead I decided to do one more version and see just what sort of shading I would need for the particles to do all the lighting. This new version has no light sources other than the particles themselves wherein the first versions I "faked it" using point lights. Lmk what you think :-) |

This reminds me of a scene from one of the video games I play. I like the blue better than the red. What about a green version? |

I think I will stick with the original for the gallery for now :-) |

Ok, You got me on this one! My first thought, after started breathing again, was AWESOME!!! And this is the Pickled version, which I like better than the the Gallery version. I guess it was the blue. It seems more electric. |

Like the particles infiltrating the accelerator, so does the image infiltrate my mind... I love the update! |

Love this image looks exactly like the inside of a fusion reactor(given our current technology) I would score this as a 10 for the realistic look and your vision you do so much GREAT WORK!!! I cannot imagine getting my wallpapers any where else. Keep up the good work. |

Normally Ryan's abstracts aren't my favorite DB stuff. I can't say I dislike any of them; I usually score them around 7-8. Not this one. Somehow, it just hits the mark dead center for me. Easy 10. Hard to verbalize why -- I'll just have to resort to saying, once again, well done Ryan! |

I have to say, I much prefer the original colour scheme; for me, the new red one would be a pickle jar variant, and the original the official one. Yes, maybe the original's a little dark overall, but it hadn't particularly struck me… and I feel it could be just lightened up a little without needing to change the colour scheme. |

Quite a number of folks felt the first version was too dark so I've increased some the glow that I built into the mesh. Since this glow is blue I decided to change the color of the particles to provide some contrast (and to get away from it looking like "The More You Know" star). LMK what you think :-) |

Kinda like Melinda asking after Dorothy, and what her purpose is. I don't really care if I don't know what it is, or where it is, it's really pretty; simple and beautiful simultaneously merged. And unique. Thank you, Ryan. This one's a keeper. |

I similarly always loved the original here. This update is fantastic and got a 10 from me. That said, after reading the review about seeing "the more you know" star ... I can't UNsee that. I understand the visual thermal/energy implications; white hot cooling down/shedding particles which cool down, etc. |

But this is actually the inside of a tokamak, not a linear accelerator =)

I love this remake. Although with the particle trail I am reminded somewhat of the 'The More You Know' star and its particle trail :) Still fabulous work. I can't wait to see what tweaks you make to this. |

Love this render of an old favorite. Particularly like the colorful particles. The last version was 2005, wasn't it? Wow, time sure accelerates as we get older. ;) |
