    Question The World - from space

    I was having a go at drawing a simple globe and thought it might look good from a space point of view - with a few stars!

    Then I put a compass on it (which I had drawn previously) to see what it would look like?!

    What do you think?

    Looks great, Rik. I like your light reflections on the compass.

    Nice work Rik.

    What if the compass has some transparency? Like in the center with the outside totally opaque. It might marry the two images more.

    Hi Gary.

    What a great idea.
    I'm going to have a go at that later.
    Hope it turns out as good as the idea!

    Hi Gary and guys.

    Well, I've had a go at applying transparency to the centre and opaque at the edge.

    Well, only you guys can judge how it looks?!

    In my opinion I like it better, it brings to two images together
