Some may use references, some may not.
Some use guides, like photographs and images.
There are many ways to approach it.
Background images, blurs, lightings, effects like bevels and embossing.
Think of something different and unique – use whatever references you can.
Your Mock Up will be great!

CarlosViloria saidPretty surprised to know this
But harmonikas996, just an example all my mockups are made from 0 in photoshop and I don’t use photos nor 3D software, Unfortunately I have no tutorials, but it’s all about, to imagine the final object in perspective and transforming smart objectsYour mock-ups are just so realistic, Carlos.
Thanks
