That cross reflection is amazing. I have tried to reproduce it. I'm using a procedural shader with displacement, so I can instantly try lots of different pyramid shapes and aspect ratios. I have tried bending them every which way and I cannot get such a distinct cross as seen in the photo. Attached is the best I was able to do.
In my opinion, that was no accident. It seems like finding the exact geometry needed to produce that effect was a planned action.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
