Digital.Spring.Cleaning – Ice Ice Bengay

admin — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 08:43:09 +0000

Time for another round of digital spring cleaning as the 3TB drive is getting full; getting rid of the really unnecassary raw files and temporary psd files.
Saw this photo which was part of a Bengay photo shoot; looks kinda great for a straight shot.

Rendered dollop due to there being no actual product, and my general lack of desire for handling cream and camera at the same time; second one has the clear parts of tubes rendered as the real thing had an un-retouchable amount of type on the back.
