These earrings were created by {me} in my home studio from start to finish. I etched these copper rectangles with a whimsy floral design and formed them on a dapping block. They hang from handmade copper earwires.
The biggest texture on here was the lightmap which stood at 512x512. Everything else was 256 and lower. I didn't alter anything in photoshop, scale wise or color wise. I just dragged and dropped it into the composition and arranged it.

What you see before you is (I think) the first grappa to have been made in the UK. Originating in the Devon Distillery, DAPPA is the brainchild of a guy named Cosmo Caddy (strong name confirmed). The distillery itself is based in Teignbridge (which, if you hadn’t guessed, is in Devon…)
Anyhow, this is the 2013 vintage, the first they have created, and is produced mainly with Rondo and Pinot Noir grape skins. They also use smaller quantities of Regent and Dornfelder - presumably to shake up them spiritous flavours. The grapes are sourced from a number of prestigious English vineyards: think Sharpham, Three Choirs, Bolney, Biddenden and a few others.
Inspired by the style of grappa from Northern Italy, DAPPA is distilled by hand in Devon, using an Italian copper still, and under the supervision of a veteran Italian distiller. As for where to find it? They retail online, but the drink is also quite commonly available around Devon and the more fashionable bars in some of the bigger cities (think the HIX bars in London etc). This vintage also picked up a silver at San Francisco World Spirit Awards 2015 - which can only be a good thing…
