Hi All,
I am stumped...I have been trying to reproduce W.B. Johnston's "Mayan Blood" image in Xara for weeks to no avail (http://www.wbjohnston.com/mexico/mayanblood.html). I just cannot seem to get the shadows right, both in the crack lines in the stone or the "sculpted lines". The blood is similar to other effect seen here, but the stone is really the nugget IMHO.
W.B. has used airbrushes on Crescent board to give a very realistic looking stone. If you have ever visited a Mayan ruin (Copan), you would appreciate the work W.B. has done in capturing the nuance of a Mayan stone.
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Milton
