    Very good tut Gary, the end result gives a nice soft painterly looking image.
    Enjoyed looking through all of the work Anas has posted. Love those animations. First class looking work.

    Looks great Gary! I especially like the vine leaves effect.

    I'm using an older version of Xara, so I can have a go at this one when I get a mo. (Do I notice a bit of a wine theme happening recently with this and your recent stereogram? ... Not that I'm complaining or anything.)

    Thanks for all your hard work Gary.

    Regards

    Well observed Su. Originally, I needed a repeating panel that was mostly grapes. I needed to create some grapes to fill in a portion of Gerry's photo. So, as so often happens, it turned into a tutorial.

    I'm not too sure about the end result, but, I had a go and learned a few things.

    You may find this strange but the best bit for me was on page 3:-
    "This automatically converts the straight lines into graceful curves..."
    I've never used that!

    Thanks, once again, for all your hard work, on another great tutorial.

    Many thanks Gary, as always, a great tutorial for people to get their teeth into some serious Xara'ing
