Show us your rust!

I added to my last image (see above) but apparently modifying a post does not show up as a new post.

I Liked the rust worms! But I also like the new ones. The image is very great, it looks very 3D and it amazes me that that image could be all put together in ones mind! Great job

Thanx, Gary, but if it were a photo, it would have had a few little shadows. It's the details that sell. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

Ric -- I suspected your plate was hand made. Good job.

Funny, I was just about to post a long story about what I did (so far this summer). One of the results is this section of a 3' x 2' panel.
I will post another also.

As promised here is the second from the same panel

The first panel is fantastic! The second panel is less fantastic if your intention was readability.

I like the concept of the rust appearing through the metal but not at the expense of being able to read the text. Call me old fashioned, I guess. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

Gary,
yah the second panel does not have enough contrast between the letters and the rust. In defense I should say the final image is much larger. the shiny rectangle is about 8" wide which helps. Still I will try to figure out a way to jump the contrast and still say: (in a hollow tone)"JOBS...Fighting...RUST..."
