Software used: Artrage 2.5

Yet another still life study, this time I focused on refraction and reflections. I wasn't aware at the time what kind of pain it would be to try capturing them faithfully, since my method involves staring at it with one eye only and making invisible relationships between que-locations for proper proportions. Move your head just a little and the refractions and reflections give you another picture. So, yeah, it was tedious and even painful, but somehow rewarding. Took roughly 6 hours and was all artrage. At the end I noodled the colors a little bit with photoshop and gave a tiny bit of bloom, because I wanted to push the highlights to feel more natural (ironically) in terms of contrast and brightness distance to the rest.
