Nice and clean, and reflections look on point. Great work altogether on this set!

I was thinking of a low angle shot for my next piece.I want to have a surface for the object to sit on instead of floating like other concept i did just to give them a bit more realism and context but i am not sure what kind of environment would work without taking away from the subject matter. Maybe a wood floor but that would be to texture heavy maybe a tile floor.I feel like the scene could be in front of a door of a house just subtle enough to help convey the idea that someone is about to go somewhere if we put it inside that not really give the feeling of travel it feel more like object sitting in a house definitively not what i want to Convey.

The object are
A Travel Bag and a WaterSkin

Looks great to me, very well constructed and I enjoy the composition. Looking forward to seeing it developed further!

Been a long time since i did anything involving line weight for time sake this time i just wanted to focus exclusively on lineweight so i took an image from the Darksider genesis artbook and i scan it an import into a digital editing software. There no really anything special about it just a small ''breather'' something different from my longer project that just   keep dragging on which seem to be a problem of mine... i am all good as long as i feel like i am learning and once it just is time to get it ''wrap it up'' it like i switch off as i seen the same project for to long or just ran out of steam. When there is no ''problem solving it like i become very bored quickly'' .My brain seem easily bored when i am not trying something new. But enough with that self observation i just go to deal with how my brain is period.

Hopefully this little ''different note'' in my work will give me some steam to restart my other project that got pause plus i am getting some wrist issue from time to time so sometime i loosing my ability to push my project before it become to physically taxing to continue and that just kill the momentum which is annoying because i feel a good flow state certainly help not get to distracted and loose steam and god only know how easily i get distracted... but sometime a pause is not a bad thing because it switch my brain to a more analytical pattern where i can reorganize more my priority and help me get a bird eye view because with fatigue i feel it easier to fall into a tunnel vision when you get to much into a flow state where you kinda zoom in and zone out loosing track of the whole which doesn't help .It to easy to zone out and work to no end...it  a lot more demanding to be in problem solving mode.
