    Default old_phone

    At a first glance I thought this could have been an interesting and not to difficult subject. Wrong! The old, scratchy and oxidized brass has been very difficult, and I made several attempts to create a quite realistic look. Proportionally, I spent more time for the brass than for any other drawing I ever made. I shot several photos with different ligthings, but I preferred the Caravaggio-like one. Comments are welcome.

    Amazing as always Lupen

    The time spent on getting the detail right for the brass was time well spent, fantastic!.
