I revised my dimensions to follow Miss Nancy's suggested values.
Here is the scope from various angles. I put a "coating" on the objective lens so it has that cool dichroic look to it.
At high magnification, there are some serious distortions, particularly at the center. I am trying various geometries to combat it but nothing has come out acceptably yet. The tiniest deviation from perfection causes enormous trouble here. That must be why a high-quality, high-zoom, high-aperture scope is so very expensive.
Poser is notoriously sloppy at math - that doesn't help things.
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)
