    I like the rendering, just wanted to suggest something, try using the gradation effect on the text, applying white to gray, gray being where the shadow casts. you have done it on the X portion, make sure you carry that all the way on the top for all the letters.
    Always try to see where your light source is coming from and cast shadows on all objects where necessary.

    Otherwise good work.

    A very good suggestion Behzad, many thanks.

    Hi Panfer,

    Nice to see you back in the forum. I love the water effect, very real look.

    The only thing I can see that may enhance the image is a default envelope applied to the text. So it appears to conform to the side of the can.

    Soquili, I am glad I posted this. It gives me an opportunity to learn what I did wrong and how to improve it(never thought of applying envelop to the text but makes perfect sense). Thank You.
