Software used: Artrage 2.5
(I can't believe that Artrage is not in the list, yet! It's a major tool as far as I'm concerned!) ;o)

This is my second still life study with real life objects next to me as setup. Whether obvious or not, there was no photographic reference, but just my shirt, mask and cheap juggling balls I had flying around. All that underneath my desklight. After having realized that sunlight is extremely hard to catch while your still studying everything, I decided to stick to my desklight and the night. The focus here was on color hue and contrasts as well as bounce light, although this is not too dramatic in terms of bounce. I was hoping the deeply saturated balls would contribute harsher effects, but even that alone had been a great education for me.
