CAD feedback/help please (DK Project)

[CBianco]

I'm working on a new project with DK and would love some help on the CADs as I'm sort of a newbie still and not good at reading them...

The center will be a 0.61ct 5.45×5.48mm ACA E VS2 diamond (will be updated on the cad), with a small halo of natural pink diamonds and another "sunny" outer halo that is inspired by a VC ring. I photoshopped a poorly done mockup of how I'm sort of imagining for the ring to look like:



The 2 VC rings that this is inspired by:




This is the first CAD:


I asked for a version with a slightly bigger pink diamond inner halo and am liking it better than the first as the proportions look more harmonious to my inexperienced eye:



The ring will be in platinum and 18k rose gold for the inner halo, prongs for center diamond will be changed to platinum, the round bezels in the gallery will be rose gold with pink sapphires.

Do you think this will transfer nicely into the final product? Are the proportions good and anywhere that could be more refined? I will also ask if the shank will be more 3D like rather than flat like in the CAD.

TIA!

Once you’ve chosen, ask - and he’ll send you a mold to make sure it’s what you’re looking for. (I like them both… good luck)

That's a great idea, thanks! I could possibly ask them to send me both versions to see which one is better in person

I bet he would - and his molds are so cool - because they include molded diamonds so you really get an idea of what it will look like. I used a nail clipper to cut the prongs down because the prongs will stick up a bit (they will not be bent over the stones like a finished product). They aren’t in color - but I bet you could use marker to get a better idea?!?) can’t wait to see what it looks like!
