Gare's non-Xara Art

[Gare]

This is mostly color and image depth. The objects weren't all that hard to sculpt!



My Best,

I have no idea where these two images came from...

I did this because I don't believe in relying on cloud storage...so I still burn music CDs.

That box looks familar!

The record with the plastic converter piece in the center brings back memories!

It's actually a different box model than the one I supplied on a Xara Xone tutorial, Frances, but it could have been. One of the things I like about modeling is re-usability. A box, a lamp, whatever, can be posed and colored differently and become a part of a new scene.

Now, here is the same box. Different contents.



My Best,

In the 1990s, I thought the coolest thing you could do with a modeling program is build a chess set, imitation being flattery, and a chess set is almost as iconic as a tea kettle in the 3D field.

I did this recently to illustrate an article on The Xara Xone.




I think it's just fun to bend stuff that shouldn't or can't be easily bent in the Real World (which I visit occasionally).

This is an unfinished logo idea.

It needs initials inside the circle; the client didn't go for it.

The music eventually will be real, but the orchestra isn't. An "anechoic chamber" is a device used by military contractors to test sonar and microwave transmitting hardware.

In theory, an anechoic chamber orchestra wouldn't make any sound at all.

I'd originally created the chapter pages in the Xara Xtreme Guide as "white on white" pieces but the publisher told me, "It's a color book. Use color."

Here's the original, though, which I think forces the composition less.

A birthday card for my mom. Luxology modo and Photoshop.
