A digital watercolour...

[Ross Macintosh]

The attached digital watercolour was created in Xara Xtreme from jpgs of a 3d model made in SketchUp. I don't have any one-click watercolour-type plugins so the image's watercolour effect had to be built-up from numerous transparent overlays (plug-in filtered bitmaps).

I hope you enjoy. (It really needs to be seen much larger to see the details).

Regards, Ross

Ross, absolutely gorgeous work and the painterly approach with watercolors is sheer genius. Words fail the describe how masterful your work truly is.

Thank you for your postings. Always inspirational and awesome--stretching the boundaries of what is possible with computer graphics.
