Made myself a new wallpaper

Not sure if this is the place for it, but it was 100% made in SU in about 15 minutes using a single (duh) component copied way too many times. After waiting 5 minutes for the animation to run in Sketchy Physics, I cleaned up the geometry I used to scatter the casings around then exported and rendered it. Here it is straight out of Kerky and at full res, 1440x900.
In retrospect I should have centered it properly...but I have to redo it anyways because I used the wrong material for the brass.
EDIT: Anyone who knows guns should notice that those are in no way based on a real round. For one thing, they are far too long. Any round that is that long would have a tapered end to it, because it would be a rifle round. I really doubt any handgun would have 2 inch long .50 cal rounds and for that matter, I really doubt any .50 cal round would only be 2 inches long anyways.
.The S&W Model 500 IS a .50 cal, but im sure the casings arent 2 inches long. I could be wrong though.

If I'd seen that in another context, I'd mistake it for a photo of actual brass pieces.

I suppose Ill take that as a compliment
Actually I totally lucked out. I didnt think to make the primer a different color until about 2 seconds before I clicked the export button
. The primers are silver and while it is a HUGE difference before the render, the end result is really subtle. I was thinking that the global I used (from the hdri globals on the Kerky website) was going to have a lot more stuff in it as I had never used that one before, but it turned out to be a subtle smoke effect.I think it makes a nice desktop.

Yes, it was meant as a compliment.

Very nice. I like it. You have done some good work here.

Anyone have any suggestions regarding this?
Im far from "good" with Kerkythea, or even at modeling, and am always looking for tips on this stuff.
