unfinished work

Hi people,
Here's something I came up with today using Xara Xtreme and Xara 3D . I was trying to copy the effect that you see when viewing the inside of a plaster face cast with different light sources. Now I just have to make up a background image

Nice effect Wayne, unusual. Maybe you could show us the X1 shape.

yes, very cool and very weird - i like it!!!

Thanks guys heres the 3d file and the x file...

I had to download it to see what the actual shape was that you used, it looks very unintuitive at first glance. Very imaginative!

Very impressive Wayne,
It took me a while to work out that the head is the actual border, while the eye is the font. I have never tried this method before. I don't really understand the benefits yet, of using a border, maybe someone can enlighten me.

I wanted to put a head in a box.
So if the text is the head - I gotta have a border for the box:

Yes but you could of easily have done that without using a border, just another shape (font).
