You've got a great shine on that one!

As far as critique goes, a few major things I noticed were the back line, and the bottom line.

The back line and transition from bowl to shank need a bit of love. The bottom line has a sag in it, which isn't very visually pleasing. However, if you could dial in the lines a bit, I think you'd have a winner. As is though, the shape seems undefined. I'm not sure if it's an apple, or a brandy, or something else.

Keep at it man! :D

Well, not very good, either.
Best regard.

Pues, no es muy bueno, que digamos.
Saludos.
