Gary Bouton's Xara Stuff

I especially like the delicate angle of the 3D Florida

[Gare]

Thanks, csehz—

I traced over an extrude that was at a very wide perspective.

[Gare]

I deliberately ignored possible areas that could have been blended together. The geometry sort of asked to be posterized when I filled it.

Good choice to not blend, Gare.
(not sure about the yellow shadow, though - if indeed it is a shadow).

[Ron Duke]

I see what youre both referring to in regards to the choice not to blend. Isnt there a name for this type of art?

Yeah, I was trying something that didn't exactly succeed there, Bob. I wanted dichroic outdoor lighting, and the pale yellow is the chromatic opposite of the green. Let's call this a WIP and I'll be back with something more like this:

I've toyed with "crap" and "technically immature", but I believe the generally accepted term is "Posterized". The thing has Poster Edges not unlike the plug-in in P'shop.

Thanks Gare! You're a bucket of hilarity!
So I say: "WIP IT! WIP IT GOOD!

That's a very clever avatar Gary. I like it. I will mention that it is the one with the color pencils. You have been changing them frequently.
