The sphere. A simple object. Primitive. Round.
The CGSphere Project is simply this: What can you do with a round object in your 3D world?

Contributors have tried to create the most captivating 3d sphere, using their choice of software.
My favorites: My Precious. No Way Out. Solar Radiometer. Idea in a Cage. Sputnik. Hunter Killer. Don't Do it. mini adventure. Corals. Pin Ball. Spy Hole.

I am suprised than I couldn't find an eyeball nor a "smilie" face in the submissions.

Don't dig around in the low-rated end of the organic category. NSFW

Very good.

I love "Don't Do It" - very creative use of the theme.

In my opinion - the best 'ball' of them all.

Nice. This post (not necessarily the execution) reminded me of once upon a time ago when I discovered Bryce and all the landscapes had to have a floating sphere. Just because!

I never thought I'd find sphere's so fascinating. But there you go.

Also, I never thought that I would misuse an apostrophe in so short of a sentence. I'm blaming it on residual New Year's hangover. (That one is correct, right?)
