Worked ok for me. Looks kinda like water.. but maybe cause I dont often see dripping glass. I'm not profficient enough to make any real comment. :)

the first one is good but I have no clue what is going one with the big black mess that you have there.

Updated the site, there is a wine glass on there now. And as far as being profficient, i dont think you cant say you are. For we have all seen water and glass before. Usually what ever comes into your mind firts is what it looks like, thus is it looks like water and its suppose to be glass, there is somethign off.

What I meant was take a really good glass texture and apply it to what appears to be a liquid dripping and I'll likely think water, apply a good water texture to a Wine Glass and I'll think glass :)

Anywho your wine glass looks good to me.

maybe you should just increase antialiasing and shadows detail.
But the effect of glass looks perfect.

Try placing some objects around it or just give the floor a bit of a texture. Just to get reference cause right now the black and orange parts at the top of the glass don't look right. Is that a reflection of something you have above it?

yeah its from an HDR image, the next image i produce will be on a good texture....

How did you acheive the subtle color on the lip of the glass? Is that something with the lighting? It'd be really cool if you let us in on that.


Thanks

I think the glass looks quite realistic. But hey! Are you calling it a "wine glass"?! :D
