...Simply put; this is something I'd been running away from for years.

Clearly it shows.

I was told to find another glass with a stem.....My house being very..dunno, practical/lame, there's practically nothing of that sort.

Except this ice cream bowl.

It's hard. I tried adjusting the drawing based on the picture as well, this time. And trying more...ungh, light shading.
For some reason there's a difference in values between the taken picture and what I am seeing. It's strange.

And then I tweaked it on Photoshop to see how I'm comparing.

Conclusion : my values are far too messy.

Some spots are too dark (the glass' rim, the highlights and others ate too light (background, the water.)

To say nothing of the skewed glass.
Cannot say I'm satisfied yet.
