Identical coffee makers here in Spain, too. Very nice work on all the pieces here.
Bob.
Wow, that looks terrific.
That is awesome, the metal coffee pot is my favourite part of the piece, the metal is beautiful.
Looks great lupen, the only thing that grabs my attention to comment on is the cast shadows onto the table top.Quote:

The sugar bowl shadow seems most prominate but shouldn't all three objects share a similar shadow values with the two front being at least as prominate as the sugar bowl?
All things considered lupen I like it a lot. Great job.
Great job, I really like the lighting and highlight effects on the ceramic. Very realistic.

Very good work Lupen
Thanks to all for the positive comments.
@wizard509: my works are never perfects, so you are probably right. Anyway, I attach the original photo I shot. It seems to me that even in the photo shadows show different densities, that's why I create different types of shadow. Thanks for spending time watching my drawing and giving me interesting hints.

IS THIS A DRAWING ??????????
Lupen you've made more than a wonderful work, I can imagine how hard it could be.
CONGRATULATIONS
Very nice art! So convincing that I am going to go have a cup!
I can't say any more that hasn't all ready been said Lupen, great job. I'll be over for coffee and cookies.
lupen, you are correct about the photo shadows "show different densities", but look closely at the photo and you will see that all 3 objects have a very dark area under them that firmly attaches them to the surface so they do not "float", I am knitpicking here but that's the way I see it.Quote:

Thanks again to all for your comments.
@Jvila: I am glad to hear you again. Thanks a lot.
@wizard509: I understand what you are saying. I attach a new version with 2 small dark shadows under the sugar bowl and the coffee cup. Thanks for your comment.
@RUSS_USSR: thanks for your hint. Very, very nice texture that give a more realistic (3D-like) effect (I keep in mind your beautiful works).

Luca - Are you using a studio photograph for your reference? I can see the umbrella strobe light reflected in the tea pot and two white reflectors on either side in the reflection on the tea pot.
lupen before you get Mr.Attachment 83687after me. I want this firmly understood. =D> It's perfect! =D> and I have no further criticisms to offer.Quote:

@gwpriester: yes, I use a "standard" illumination, with 4 soft lights. When needed, I add a spotlight from the back to enphasize the objects edges.
@wizard509: only criticism can help to improve, so you are welcome.

Fantastic work!!!
