Exceptional work on this month's tutorial, Gary! The result is a portfolio piece, and the journey is one of great learning and discovery. Well worth all the hard work, Gary.
The group show and guest tutorials were also very enjoyable!
Thanks for contributing everyone!

Nice touch Bill with the color shift.
I made one or two modifications after the tutorial was finished including some dark reflections on the links and a highlight on the crystal.

Here's my attempt at the watch. I've created in XaraX for export to Flash, so one or two techniques couldn't be used. The link to the Flash version is here

Outstanding tutorial Gary. Seeing the fine work of Bill and Egg, I'm going to try it myself. Pretty sure it will take me longer than Bill's five hours, but since I've not tackled anything like this before I expect to learn a lot.

Very Nice Flash Egg! One suggetion, make the minute hand move also. there are some fools who will sit and see if the minute hand will move. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif I do not think there are enough fools to warrant the hour hand moving.

John the minute hand works for this "old fool" sat and watched it happen to see if it did. It goes with large single movement and at the end of it you expect to hear a tick or its it a toc.
Have started Gary's tut but had to stop after two hours could be the hardest one from Gary yet.

I like the Flash animation and the realistic touched you have added to the watch.
Daniel Will Harris, a long time Xara users and fan, had designed a series of watches and used Flash to animate them including some Flash time piece screen savers. Some of Daniel's watches are sold in the New York Museum of Modern Art.
