Xara vs. photo

[lupen]

Trying to reproduce the reality, I mixed the real photo with the drawing. Small differences apart, they look quite similar. The perfume on the right needed lots of shapes (see detail). Comments are welcome. Lupen

Crazy perfect!

[gwpriester]

I cannot tell the difference!

You've got a good eye for shading, blending and highlighting.

It reminds me of those commercials back in the '70s when you had to decide, "Is it live, or is it Memorex?" Updated to the 21st century the decision is now, "Is it a photo, or is it a Lupen?"

Very well done, Lupen!

Wow great work, they all look like photos to me.
