Yeah, I saw it "develop". Really nice render and it has now the meaning, too!

Thanks! I learned a lot from this render (mostly from Roger's helpful tips )

Frederik

Looks excellent, Jon!!
Would definitely like to taste that coffee, but will pass on the chocolate...

Jon

Thanks
I never liked dark chocolate much either

alpro

Jon, really nice render, haven't had the chance to give Echo a try yet. I was just wondering, was the steam coming off the coffee done in post process?, if not can you give a quick description on how it was achieved? TIA

Jon

Thanks, Alpro. Yes, the steam was pp in PS. I took a picture of steam with a black background and "screened" it on a new layer.

That really does look very realistic to me, it's a great render and nice composition

tomislavm

Great!
Nice, worm, tasty rendering!

remus

nice, the detail is 1st class i dont particularly like the way everything is out of focus though, i like to be able to look at the surroundings a bit more, just being picky though

david57

Nice render, It looks like a photo.

Jon

Thanks a lot everyone!

Jon, the reflections on the can are amazing!

Stinkie

Little too much DOF (we all know it's hard to resist ), and the chocolate looks like it's made of hard rubber, but apart from that: absolutely excellent.

...I did notice that the coffee spoon (not the spoon on the cup but the one leaning against the can) does not have a handle. There is just the belly of the spoon...

I does have a handle - just it's a bit shiny and looks a bit like the bottom rim of the coffee box (?) Have a better look - it even covers some numbers in the bottom line of the box.

How did you do the heat smoke (for lack of a better word) emanating from the coffee? Was that Photoshopped in?

What's perhaps more impressive is, that Jon is only 16 years old...

@Coen... Just like Gaieus wrote...

Beautiful Jon, the steam from the coffee and the comp is just excellent!

I'm not sure, Tina... But you might still have a chance...?!?
I don't think Jon is engaged yet... He might have a girlfriend, but as the saying goes... ...first come, first served...

tinanne

LOL! I'm just a "little" older the 16 and already very happily married to a hunky, handsome, smart man who delirously loves me. (He has to be mostly delirious to love me at times)

Gaieus

Is he reading these lines Tina?

Valentines Day is coming, maybe I should make that into a card LOL

PS. Sorry Jon! Love you work, I'll try to stop talking about my wonderful husband
