My big article on Xara X -- which I wrote for c't, Germany's leading computer magazine -- is now available for online reading in English at
www.KlausNordby.com/xara
It demonstrates step-by-step how I created my "Microscope" illustration. This is the original English manuscript the Germans used for their translation. My buddy Jens Benthien claims that my unofficial, largely unedited original made for a better read than the Germans' published version - go figure that . . .

Well down. YOu do the XaraXian race proud [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
I've got to ask - as I've asked others before. As it reads it sounds like you were drawing from your head. Did you have a photo of a scope on a bottom layer? or did you just go create?

JUst looking a fig 6 - did you darw this manually to illustrate layers? Or can you show all layers on a different window?
If you click on fig6 it does not expand by the way.

Turzan, my initital reference was the old air-brushed book cover, also found on that page. It was on a bottom layer for a little while, then I removed it and did 95% of the work off the top of my head.
The fig6 link is now working.

Turzan: "JUst looking a fig 6 - did you darw this manually to illustrate layers?"
