 This is kind of what I wanted to do for the Ad challenge, but obviously couldn't do a whole lot under Basic and had no real clue how to light it without. So, this is a bit of an experiment but it came out alright. Had the bottle just sitting there from the challenge and a free prop is always a good prop :)

PP: two exposures from RAW (one for bottle, one for me), tonemapped bottle, greyscale, dodged edges of bottle and glass, white paint on a couple of bits where the dodging wasn't working (deep shadow), then usual.

The label itself is here (am v. proud of it!) :

Great processing on this. You've really made it stand out without it being blindingly obvious.

This is fun, I enjoy the concept very much but I think having more spill light from the bottle and glass on you would work out even better, or if the main lights were arranged to light the same way. Take for instance you are holding the bottle in your left hand outstretched however the left side of your face is in shadow. As well as under your chin where the glass is. I think those little things would really make this image stand out among the rest.

No scantily clad women? Hmmm, well will it restore hair loss at least? ;-)

Very good job here, Quas. I ordered a case of the stuff.
