I had one of these when I was a kid, passed down from who knows, I used to love taking photos when I could get my hands on film.

Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

This is excellent! How did you do the whites in the flash?
I left the flash as a large white box, completely separate from the camera body since I wanted a hard edge. I filled the box with a series of warm and cool strokes up and down to mimic the reflections, darks splotches last and a couple warm glazes until it felt... like, aged enough? If that makes sense? I gave it a thick dark edge when I realized I'd missed the proportions a bit to cover my mistake (lol).
I'm realizing now, the whites are just paper, no gouache used at all.
The lenses I used a bit of masking since I wanted to try a controlled backwash to get an organic lens distortion, I tried on both lenses and they both more or less work imo to create that effect I was going for.
