How about this?

Ok, so following some advice from the forum, I've made some changes to my 3d image.

Tell me what you think. I'm trying to make it as realistic as possible. You guys see so many cues. You'll have a keen eye for picking out the flaws.

Much, much better. Damn near perfect. There's just one more thing.

The playing surface of the table. There's no visible texture. It just appears flat. From a shot that close, you might see something.

You tweak the cloth a bit and I'd bet no one will be able to tell that this ISN'T a photo.

Once again, I agree.

I'll see what I can do.

i use ms paint but cant add a taper to the cue because i can only draw strait lines really... if i sent you some drawings could you add the taper effect?

here is an example...

I've seen your Ms Paint renderings before. They look fantastic. No idea how you do that... lol

Umm, yes I would think it is possible. I'd need a copy of your design without the lighting affects. And without the angle distortion.
The software will do all of that on it's own and make it look realistic.

My cue isn't really done this way. It isn't just a texture over a cone. I'll see if can post some pictures of the billet rings by themselves so you can see what I mean.

My method looks beautiful. It takes FOREVER!

There's always a trade-off.
