well i managed to get the cig box edges beveled ... and indeed it does 
look better from quick renders. yep the camera parameters aren't settled 
yet, but i'm happy with the general pose of the scene. the lighting is a 
real wide spot/area light and hdr dome. maybe i'll reposition one of the 
cigs so the identical tobacco maps isn't so obvious ... thanks for the 
feedback
