Viking (challenge)

[\"W\"]

Hi all,

I haven't played with Xara for awhile. I started this earlier tonight. It took about 4hrs. I'm slow [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

I always had problems with perspective, so it may look "off" a bit. It was done completely in Xara, (a challenge in itself, but a good one). I used most of the techniques I've learned from the ubiquitous "G" man and his tutes (thanks).

I came away from this one knowing much more about creating brushes, something which I hadn't really touched on.
I made "straw"", "chain", "fur"(my own for the brow), and ye 'ol "pill"... brushes. It's a bit big @ 84 kb. But this is the gallery, isn't it? [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Regards, Wayne

Thanks,

4 hrs, give or take. Of course, the table is a wood texture from corelTexture. I like that proggie. Other than that, it was pretty fun to do.
