Crash

I spent the entire day finely editing all the little details, edges, putting in  highlights on the body and reflections, shadows etc on the spoon, file was so big it took 30 min each save and on the final save the computer crashed and corrupted the file.  I have a half way point save backed up, don't exactly remember what processes I did, it is sort of organic in nature as I see something I adjust it, tweak it until it just looks right and real.  So back to the drawing board and come up with something similar.

It would be interesting to see how close the second versions final outcome is to the first or if the creative path leads someplace else……….Since the file is lost I guess we will never know.
