To start off, this piece was very fun! My number one goal was to try and make it as photorealistic as I could. I think I got pretty close, but there are several little things that stick out to me and are not worth stating.
I used my favorite media on this; Sharpie permanent marker. I had a hard time scanning the picture due to its size so the image you see was taken with my camer and does not completely show off the piece's true beauty.
I spent close to 30 hours completing this piece. My main inspiration for it was Brian Duey. He has done a few pieces with zippos and one of my favorites of his features a pepsi can. So, I thought I'd change it up a bit and put a coke can in mine, but there really was no substitute for a zippo...
So, THIS is what you meant by, "you'll be surprised." To be honest, I'm not as surprised as I thought I would be...Somehow I always knew you would make it to photorealism. This is truly beautiful...and I never thought I would say that about a coca-cola can and a lighter. So, am I surprised? No. Am I in aw, anyway? Of course. You take my breath away mister.
