Why is the cup reflected in the paper?

about time i got back into my own topic, first let me say WOW some great look backs and some great new chops done all in the aid of this thread.

i have completed my chop and after looking at some of the examples listed within this thread i think i will just leave it out of the comp all together and spend some more time learning this technique as i do not have the skill to match what has been done here.

no not feeling sorry for myself just realise what i wanted to do is slightly above my level right now but watch out for some "glass entries" from me soon.

again thank you all for replying and sharing your knowledge/experience

Yes, thank you marxman for the glass help.

Somthing I cooked up... nothing complex this time just simple making glass no masks or hard tecniques for this one. sorry but its fegging simple

eating in one hand photoshop in the other... lifes tough i tell ya lol

but first in the speed chop series

I don't get it - solid glass or hollow glass?

orb. its solid otherwise i would have made more specular.

I thought in a solid orb you would see a lot more of the distorted surrounding space and it would be flipped 180°. Your distortions look more like a weak magnifying glass.

I see you used the lens flare....attaboy, marx.

bump again- lets push the spam off the front page

well it was a speed chop

and yes that is true... normally i dispise lensflare but i tryed to make it as quik as poss...


he says
