Chris,

Thanks for another great tutorial. If I were accomplished like so many others here, I would draw a penguin in a fire hat with a hose putting water on it. Unfortunately, that is beyond my capabilities for now.

AnMal: Thanks. I agree that the sides need to be sharper, and the top edge should be more rounded too. I will have to work at it.

I just had to make one more try at improving my 3-D look on this tutorial.

Thanks Molly, I learned a lot doing it even though it is still not perfect.

the underside of the edges just needs a bit of curving/beveling as it looks a bit flat on the bottom edges, but it looks yummy

I luv it fluffy. You did a nice job on the smoke too...did you use a smoke brush for that?

Thanks for the encouragement molly

I used a few brushes from the Revnart Smoke collection - Revnart Smoke

I set the brush dynamics to 'Pressure Opacity' and paint the smoke using my tablet.
I then motion blur the smoke until I am happy.
