Greek peppermill


EDM challenge No. 104 is to draw some salt and pepper shakers. Here's the best peppermill I've ever had, a Christmas gift from my daughter. It's imported from Greece and as lovely as it is functional. It's a beautiful shiny copper, so I'll have to give it another go in color, but for now here's a pencil rendering.

Fabulous! The reflections show clearly the pepper mill is metallic.. but I absolutely love the delicate lines of the etched borders. Superbly drawn!

Wow - the reflections are phenomenal and really say "metal." You've also done an excellent job on the lines and shape.
