I know how to create a basic reflection, by flipping the image adding a gradient etc. But look at this reflection:

I can't post links... go to alienware's website, and the overview page of their new M17 model.

The notebook with the girl holding the sword... look at the reflection of the notebook - how did they do that?! You can't get the reflection at that angle simply by flipping and turning the notebook image.

Thanks!

It's done in 3D not in Photoshop as you probably think Smile

I think that is done into a composing software. If you have the image of the girl and the image of the notebook i think i could try to make a copy Very Happy
