    This was an incredible game in the mid 80s.
    It was called Elite, on the BBC Microcomputer. And I still play it from time to time.

    You may, or may not be able to see where the scribble was used!

    All excellent scribbles. I miss those old games, although I was never all that good at them.

    Also not a fan of neckties, shirts, suits, checked trousers or pointy shoes, although I've worn all in the past!

    I redrew this shape, originally created by Oscar Reutersvärd, now known as a Penrose triangle, using an oblique grid (45/135/90 degrees) to fit the angle of the scribble line, instead of the usual isometric grid (30/150/90 degrees).

    Late on parade this month, been having big issues with my Xara Pro+.

    So here's a brush created with the shape.

    I finally found time for the September Scribble. I'm going on vacation next week, then it wouldn't have happened. Have fun.

    That's excellent Ernie.

    Hope you enjoy your vacation. By the sounds of things from your previous posts you've been extremely busy. Perhaps you'll have some time to have a beer and play darts!

    That is really realistic.
    You better get a patent on that, before some darts player does!
