A Montreal Canadien

[David Strover]

Hi Everyone,

I looked through my folders and found this one from sometime before 2010.

This is a jpeg and I cannot find the original Xara parent anymore. The player is a Montreal Canadien but for the life of me I cannot remember his name.

I created him by painstakingly tracing the photograph of him in Xara, using the line tool. Believe me it took absolutely ages and the player may look like a clipped photo but it is full hand trace. The distorted numbers behind the player were created in Excel and then distorted in Xara - they are his actual career stats too. There are effects added from plug-ins, that I don't think I have access to anymore, including the outline of the player and so forth.

It took so long to do that I am somewhat miffed I haven't got the 'parent' for it anymore [I only did it to see if I could produce a similar style of image I saw in Computer Arts of basketball players] .

Cheers
David
