Edit:
Never, never, never are my project finished :(. Always do I find something else I just MUST have in the picture… or change or whatever.
I tried to cheat with an HDR picture to get the light, but NO… you’ll need to do every little tiny detail, so now I have added a candlelight :D.
Since the maximum for a post is three files, you’ll see the final result at post #3 below.
Hope you’ll like the improvement and feel free to comment :).
