Hello, I’ve been trying to make a realistic render of a horses eye but I can’t get the Ramp to adjust to an oval. I have the texture on a polygon doughnut [I can’t remember what the heck it’s called right now] on the inside of the sphere but I need to be able to see the entire iris, which is oblong shaped,

I can get the ramp to make a circle but not the oval.

Does anyone know how to adjust the shape of the ramp into an oblong/oval type shape?

Thanks.

I know this might be a dumb question but have you tried making the eye itself oval?  If not, is there a setting in the ramp texture placement node to scale it in the vertical dirrection?
