OK, I won`t make it any better. It`s been primarily a learning project-it`s my first LightWave proj! Managed to use all the methods I hoped for; rather unusual in the case of a 3D self-learner, even considering all the help I received from you [Thanks!:)]. Seems LightWave is the easiest though most powerful program I had my hands on. Some grumble at it, but for me it is THE ONE I`ve finally found:)
Textures from Bourke, CGtextures, and from my photos. HDRI is made with the famous kitchen_probe.hdri. Glass material partially based on that from the LiquidArts tutorial. Blender and background sideboard with kitchenware modeled with... Blender3D ;) The rest including the bottle is made exclusively with LightWave 7.5. DoF is internal, no DigitalConfusion yet.
Regarding the light... I have to admit there`s only O N E apart from the Caustics-Only Spot and HDRI. All the work is done by LightWave`s radiosity engine.

Very well done, excellent work.

never happy, always learning, it is a truth IF you are learning. Top notch way further than I'll ever be. I should dedicate time and energy to blender, but enjoy watching a render take place more. It always starts out a mystery, but most often ends mundane and flat. So you move something and go again...

Excellent and very realistic looking work. Superb!!
