1. 1 CONSTRUCTED SHAPES. First, make the form your focus.
2. 2 OUTLINE THE OBJECT. Next, look to the boundary line around your subject.
3. 3 MARK THE REFLECTIONS.

5. 5 DEEPEN THE CONTOURS.

How do you get reflections on Eevee?

By default, Eevee will reflect the HDRI and the lights but it won’t reflect the objects of your scene. For reflective volumes, you need to create a Light Probe > Reflection Cubemap in order to reflect the object(s), as explained here by Tutor4u. It’s a kind of trick to recreate a proper reflection.

How do Screenspace reflections work?

In cube mapping, you reflect a ray from some point in your scene to some point on the inside of a cube surrounding your scene. In SSR, you reflect a ray from some point on your screen to some other point on your screen. By reflecting your screen onto itself, you can create the illusion of reflection.

Can a reflection plane be used on screen?

Unless Screen Space Reflection is enabled, Reflection Planes only work on specular surfaces that have their roughness around 0. If Screen Space Reflection is enabled, Reflection Planes will serve as support buffers.

What to do with the reflection plane in Blender?

You can manually move the Reflection Plane above the surface enough for it to not appear in the capture. Alternatively you can put a floor object inside a collection and use this collection as a Visibility Collection (inverted) inside the Reflection Plane’s probe settings.

What is the influence distance of a reflection plane?

For Reflection Planes the influence distance is the distance from the plane. Only surfaces whose normals are aligned with the Reflection Plane will receive the captured reflection. Percentage of the influence distance during which the influence of a probe fades linearly.

What kind of paint do you use to make reflective paint?

Reflective paint is basically made from paint and small reflective crystals. It is something you can make yourself with a little ingenuity. Start with white or silver paint because, traditionally, this is the color most often used in reflective paint. It is also more visible than any other color in low light conditions.
