Hey, Mikey - I've proven time after time that I am not an IKEA addict. It's been three months, 4 days, 16 hours, 23 minutes and some odd seconds. But who's counting? What do I have to do to remove the stigma? So there is not "another" addict in the group. BTW, I reserve the right to enter a non-addicting shot any time I want. LOL

Not sure if I can remember all the steps. Last to first:

* Curves layer to brighten the vase spouts to match the lightness of the vase bodies (except the dark blue one, whose spout was too dark to begin with -- considering a reshoot because of this).
* Accented edges on separate layer, blended normal, 70%.
* Lower layer, which above layer was duplicated from, Sponge, 2, 5, 8.
* Curves
* Possibly hue rotation to distinguish red from orange. This definitely was done on the other IKEA picture.

I will reveal lighting or name (or both if one of them is guessed). Which do you want? ~X

Nice! Its not Cat tho, unless he's being a bad boy and entering more than 3 images. We may have yet another IKEA vase addict in our midst. -mikey

I'm guessing this is Cat's work! And nice work it is.

Not me. I have no IKEA vase addiction. It's been three months since my last IKEA entry. Besides, I've already got three in Eligible. Love the abstract treatment on the vases here. I would love to know the workflow.

Being an IKEA vase fanatic myself, I can only say "love it!". Well done. (Pops, I guess?)
