Basic Form

After playing around with some of the modelling functions in Maya I have decided that I won't make my original form very complicated. The feedback from my concept was that just having a glass sphere would be too boring even though it would change from that throughout the animation. I am thinking a bullet shape would be ideal as with lots of ricochets and fast motion it fits perfectly. It is also easy to create a basic bullet shape based on a picture as shown below. Seeing a glass bullet would be cool too.
