It doesn't really strike me as glass, or acrylic, or metal, or anything else they make bongs out of, or to be given any particular thought. But it's cool enough, maybe stretch yourself more next time.

• I like the lighting • interesting composition
-
• It's pretty small • It doesn't look like glass. I think making it bigger would be helpful here
• Too much dithering. Since dithering adds texture, a glass object shouldn't have too much.

To make it more glassy, look at a real bong ;p. Notice how there are parts that are more transparent and other parts that are more opaque. If the whole thing's mostly opaque, you can still show glass by the way light reflects off of it. Every material has a different type of reflectivity.

  • I feel... Saturated to some degree, out of tone.

Since I love pixel Art, and weed I'd be happy to help out. Very often, glass texture shows two or more light sources because it's so reflective therefore making it more noticeable as a glass texture.

I'd rid of any dithering, It just makes it look rough and textured.
I've not got anything interesting to type here..

Thanks for all the advice, guys!
But..!
This bong is standing right next to me and it's made of plastic. ;P
It doesn't make a real difference for the lightning, though.. So I just took your advice and tried to improve abit.
I hope I succeeded.

That is the smallest bowl in history.
