    One of the best sources for glass are some of the mail order catalogs. The glassware is photographed by experts who really know how to light glass, silver and other items to make them look incredible. You can learn a lot by trying to emulate their photography.

    I have several Restoration Hardware catalogs that I plan to use one of these days to do a tutorial from.

    Yes, very well rendered Dominique.
    Looks like you have a real ice cube as a reference. Some ARE totally cloudy with very small air bubbles in them, like in your work. Pure vectors?

    Most Excellent work Dominique.



    Gary, I look forward to your tutorial. The company I work for ships some of Restoration Hardware's product line. I'll have to ask for a catalog when I go out to the warehouse.
