This shot was lit hard with a beauty dish with no diffusion and grids for direction. I have had previous shoots with similar art, however we have worked hard on lighting this shot specifically for the end result.

really great work, and the lighting description was much appreciated

Very artistic and it has some kind of a metal shine which I like. This should be printed on some metallic silver paper.

This is awesome!

Great use of the displacement map, well chosen and very well suited. I particularly like the use of Shadow and Highlights in this image.
