Shadows are weird.
it'll never look like a diamond unless it breaks apart the light spectrum.

cant this be achieved through caustics? correct me If I'm wrong...
Yes, I believe Caustics can be used for Jewels, as well as water and glass, as stated in the tutorial in the first post.
E: wrong thread, thought this was the tutorial thread.
Had a few spare minutes and finished this off. Sight is a place holder. Should be making Pelican for Pen really but I have not got the time :(
7K. Needs to be made lower poly if anyone is going to use it in CE.

Your poly distribution is absolutely out of whack. The top needs some serious work - it's basically a chamfered block with stuff on it. Smooth it out dude :\
Also the handle - do you honestly thing you can fit your hand comfortably on that? The stock and back handle also need to match up; the stock could be taller while the back handle should be shorter.
I'm not really liking how the sight thing looks either.

how about how? apperently the light spots(donno technical term for it) don't show up with glass so i'm going mess around with the ground mat to see which one works best.
