|   | marcoballistic done  a  few  2d  to  3d,  felt  like  giving  it  a  go  in  reverse  :D  wasn't  as  easy  as  I  first  thought

						|   | marcoballistic the  woodwork  was  the  bugger  selecting  parts  of  the  grain  to  make  it  totally  all  source,  it  looks  round  to  me  DaVinci?  thanks  for  the  comment  though  bud.

						|   | Kansas OHHHHHHHHH  no  I  get  it..  Sorry  hadn't  had  my  coffee  yet!!!  Great  perspective  change..  Impressive!

						|   | clantoncs this  is  ridiculous!      I'm  in  total  awe.    Wish  I  could  vote.

						|   | billtvshow maybe  the  bowl  is  a  little  to  oval  IMO    Definitely.    That's  one  of  the  only  critiques  I  would  have  for  you  on  this  one  :)
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic ok  I  have  got  round  (haha  I  am  the  pun  master:D  )  to  making  the  bowl  more  rounded,  thank  to  all  who  mentioned  it  :)

						|   | marcoballistic hey  Wendy,  to  do  this  I  had  to  sample  6  sections  of  the  rim  and  work  them  and  blend  them  together,  the  I  had  to  select  several  sections  of  the  interior  of  the  boel  from  the  limited  ammount  on  show  in  the  original.
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic This  then  came  out  to  32  layers  that  were  duplicted  and  flipped  then  all  blended  together  to  give  a  smooth  look  the  the  interior  between  the  rim  and  the  soup  edge.  The  next  step  was  to  the  make  the  soup  look  right.
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic this  meant  correcting  the  noodles  that  are  hanging  off  the  chhopsticks,  I  could  not  simply  cut  and  paste  the  original,  as  the  noodles  would  just  end  at  the  top.  So  I  set  about  selecting  individual  noodles  to  make  the  soup  look  correct.
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic Covering  the  part  that  would  have  been  incorrect.  Then  as  happens  so  many  times  in  my  work,  I  realised  I  didn't  actually  need  to  make  the  noodles  look  complete,  as  I  was  about  to  cover  them  with  the  above  angle  of  the  chopsticks  ha  ha,  whoops  oh  well
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic finally  I  had  to  reproduce  the  wooden  table,  from  a  very  limited  amount  on  the  original.  I  decided  that  the  pattern  had  to  alter  slightly  to  be  able  to  do  this.  I  selected  sections  of  the  grain,  and  gradually  worked  the  small  details  across  the  piece
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | marcoballistic then  to  finish  I  added  shadowing,  and  changed  some  of  the  highlights  and  darker  areas  to  correspond  to  the  new  angle.  and  that  is  the  way  I  set  about  producing  this,  hope  that  clears  it  up  for  you,  thanks  for  asking  Wendy:D

						|   | marcoballistic oh  and  I  really  should  check  my  spelling  before  I  hit  the  comment  button  lmao
 | 
					
						|  | 
				
					
						|   | wendysmurfie haha  thanks  marco,  don't  worry  about  the  spelling,  believe  me  mine  is  worse,  i  didn't  even  noticed  your    mistakes  ;)  lol.  Maybe  i  should  give  it  a  try  some  time,  but  i  think  this  is  for  more  experienced  people.  But  from  trying  we  learn  right?  :D

						|  | 
				
					
						|   | wendysmurfie oh,  and  now  its  round.  Good  fix  :)
 |
