Decorative egg to a cup of coffee...

I used 1 external source which is a real image of a cup of coffee.

Just take off the upper part of the cup + cut the egg into half + put it together + the handle + a little bit of design to the handle + burn a little bit to combine the lighting and that's it!


Hope you like it. Thanks. ^_^

jinxedkitten [lvl 14] [vp 667] [ 2]:

Gorgeous work, but where the handle joins at the cup there is something strange happening to the pattern. Suggest using a separate piece of the patern so it doesnt blend in with the one behind and making sure the shadows/highlights show through on the handle pattern. Otherwise, I love it
(99 days ago)

heodat.vpts [lvl 6] [vp 266] [ 0]:

Very nice entry. Suggest that you draw sth on surface to be look like capuchino coffee

joasdude [lvl 1] [vp 0] [ 0]:

looks nice and clean accept for the reflection wich still looks like the reflection of only the egg
(98 days ago)

gopankarichal [lvl 22] [vp 1000] [ 32]:

very good work!! But there is some problems also(masking is not ok on the handle).
(97 days ago)

janee0513 [lvl 11] [vp 135] [ 0]:

Looks really realistic! Only problem I have is the same, the part on the handle, that needs to be masked out. Other than that I like it a lot. Nice idea!

wazowski [lvl 13] [vp 1000] [ 88]:

Nice use of colors and good SBS! Some comments though...(1) The black line under the egg is a pity. Maybe it's meant as some shadow or sth, but for me it doesnt work well. Perhaps you can soften it or remove. (2) Nice twinkling details! It's almost a pity that you also used quite many figures from the egg itself. Understandable, but it's a pity they overrule your other nice details. And maybe it's also because (3) the way you used the figures with bevel and emboss. I mean, the whole image looks quite magic, but the bevel/emboss pushes it back more to standard PS-use. For the rest: chapeau!

great idea
(96 days ago)

author:

Thanks all- and good suggestions wazowski! I am definately still learning how to bridge that gap a little bit- as you can see the ideas are there... but after many levels and much time sometimes I come out a bit over or underworked. This is the hardest thing for me Thanks for everything guys I feel very welcomed. Best of luck to you all...

High Resolution

For the bunny's and bunny wears, I manly used levels, hue/sat and gaussian blur. For the house, a texture, levels and lowered the saturation. Windows and doors, I used levels, hue/sat, noise and gaussian blur Everything else is levels.
