    Default Winter warmers

    Might be Valentines day but it's still chilly in Manchester UK so I've made my favourite farm house soup, so grab some crusty bread and get stuck in just give it a stir to infuse the extra herbs I through in

    A bit of steam coming off it would look good!

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Stygg, I found your soup tureen a little flat, lacking in form and texture.

    So I added highlights and shadow and hope to have given it some of what it was lacking

    That's a good observation Frank.

    Stygg the soup looks good. I'll take a bowl with some multi grain bread and low fat margarine! Yumm!

    Your right Frank, your example looks much better, I will do some alterations as you suggest. The high light on the left appears to have a bit of body, is it a double trans. so to speak? because if I draw the shape and give it a trans. it looks flat nothing like yours, all suggestions and help much appreciated, if you don't ask you won't learn

    I didn't keep the soup bowl xar file, I'm afraid, but I found this in my backups folder - it should contain all if not most of my edits.
