April 2010, my how time is flying by this year.

Please take some time to stop what you are doing and post some of your current work (or play

) in Xara software. Completed images or works in progress are all welcome.

I've been playing with seamless tiles used to give texture via bitmap transparencies. Here is a frame I did.

Looks very good Frances.

Yes, I know there's a lotta room for improvement.

Also, one massive cheat - using a lotta shadow gets me off paying attention to tyres.

Anyways - here's the .xar file, so if you ain't happy with it you can put it right.

So there

MONOGRAMS

We all know the famous stereograms made by Gary W Priester.
A new technique has been discovered called monograms
I post one here, it is the object to look with one eye, left or right,
depends which one will work better for you, and focus in out fast, and if you
do it fast enough you will see a message. Enjoy

Who's the joker? Changing the name of the gallery for a day are we?

Good job on the joker, Bill.

Interesting frame, Frances.

Ankhor, a monogram huh? I think maybe that's an Ankhorgram.

Intbel, love that Auburn. What a classic.

This is a WIP for one of three aircraft to be used in an illustration on the golden age of air racing. This one is Roscoe Turners 'Meteor'.

Thnx. Leaves a lot to be desired.
Ya reckon your plane will ever get of the ground?

Just as soon as I get that Twin Row Wasp installed it will lift off from that digital landscape, Intbel.

Intbel, fantastic Auburn, great choice of cars.
Gray, I think your planes are already flying. Look realistic.

Old and new travel.
I started a space scene and then went back to do an old but excellent tute (May,2000, I think it was one of Gary's) of a hot air balloon. Thought I would throw it in the space scene and things went from there.
