Stunning work. Yes, it's the reflections that gave it the extra kick. My eyes would be watering if I'd try to do detailed work like these. Tutorials would be nice, but it still wouldn't give us the skill of looking and analyzing what shapes and features to focus on if we were to make something similar. What to keep and what to ignore. These things are harder to learn.

That is spookily good. The chrome is stunning. Can i just ask a question though? Does it look to anyone else as though there are 14 minutes in the first hour quarter and 16 minutes in the last?

Yes but who cares.

Yes, I agree but Jose might care. If he does then he might also like to know that, in the 51st minute , the half minute calibration is off centre. And I can't recall ever seeing a shadow (on the wood bench) with highlights.

I hope these comments are understood as constructive. They might make the difference between a lucrative contract and no contract. Someone who does work of this quality usually wants it to be perfect.
