I have to agree about the cups and point out that the pencil holder looks as though it’s floating. I still have problems with the shadows directly beneath objects!
IMHO the oranges need to be a bit more orange.
Nice work so far I especially like the background modeling and texturing :o
I’ve made a couple of changes based on you suggestions
The oranges are oranger (but I think I may have gone over the top on that one).
The cannisters were a a rock wall texture that I agree did not translate very well so they now match the pencile holder (which was floating due to advances in pencile holder technology, so i made it a conventional one. )
Now the problem with the hanging cups is a tough one. I think the conflict was in the glasses in the hutch. I made them a little less translucent so hopefull they more closely resemble stemmed gobblets.
Elsdon, I’ve just realised that the white objects hanging from the front of the cupboard are pieces of paper and tape. To start with they looked like hanging cups, hence my comment about them looking flat.
The glasses look spot on and the pots look better in wood.
