    I love it, I think it's beautiful. I do have certain reservations about the shading on the decorations however that I have not yet come to terms with yet.

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

    It's a pretty good drawing, Ron.
    And you've obviously put a lot of work into it. But...

    Things just don't look right, to me.
    Looking at the shadow, the lighting looks all wrong on the teapot.

    I can't find an exact example, but, have a look at the attached image.

    In comparison, you will see that all the shiny parts, on your drawing, suggest the light is from the front-left.
    But, your shadow suggest the light is from the rear-left.

    Just my 5-pence worth!

    My bad..... I neglected to finish the shadowing, if you'll notice the shadow I first posted didn't even have the spout included. Additionally, there was supposed to be multiple light sources/reflections of varying degrees.

    Multiple light sources are tough Ron. You get a big atta boy for that. Looks great .

    Thanks Larry.
    None of what I do is "right on", in my opinion. However, I continue to learn AND to be reminded of things I need to do/correct and that I've forgotten to do/correct.
    It's never ending for this guy.
