Terrific. I love it. I'm going to fetch my 3 cats to see what can happen to them. :)
Welcome to the Xara Gallery Conference. We look forward to seeing more of your work.

Great drawing with lovely humour. Love all the detail in your work, can I ask is it part of a larger work or is it a one of.
Excellent! Not only is the artwork great, but your imagination and humour are great as well.
Gorgeous illustration Centaurus. The detail is fantastic :)
Welcome to Talkgraphics. Nice to have you here!
Outstanding! With work like yours, the children (of all ages) of the World can keep a smile on their face! :)
thanks, Gary :)Quote:

No, it was just a quick idea when I was walking in the woods and listening to the radio.. there was some program about architecture and it came in my mind to a cat house on a tree :)Quote:

Great stuff I like the grass how did you reproduce it,
Yes as already mentiond. GREAT job. It really makes you study it and think. Can't wait to see more from you.
I've drawn a small patch of grass and then made a brush from this patch.Quote:

That's really adorable. Thanks for sharing it. :)
Great work. Love it.
Одна из лучших работ за последнее время. Есть тут неплохо выполненные работы, но как правило этот какие-нить машинки или похожая фигня.
А тут чувствуется художник. Завидую белой завистью :)
thanks :)Quote:

Wonderful, love the dog, very much enjoyed - thanks.......Penny
A great piece of work and thought in that one Centaurus.
Насчёт XTune - версия Xara какая? Если последняя, то и не должно работать. Каждый раз приходиться затачивать под новую версию, под проследнюю ещё не занимался. Ремонт у меня :)Quote:

Everything works fine, it was just a collision between new Xtreme 3.2 and old Xtreme 2.0.
And I love this enhanced rendering algorythm — it handles lines as good as shapes now, thanks for the utils! :)
Glad it works.Quote:

Hi Dmitry,
The easiest method to send a PM, at least for me.
Click on the Username beside a person's post and select "Send a private message to ..."
It can be done in the Private Messages area, but you have to type in the person's username...........I prefer to use the mouse and click ;)
I laughed out loud when I noticed the mouse being cooked !!!
great fun
And I should have thought about the way mouse got there :))Quote:

Thanks Steve. I forgot about PMs not being enabled for new users. Only moderators can PM a new user until they have posted a number of posts.
I am having trouble finding the post that outlined the details about PMs for new users. Does anyone have the link?
Sorry Dmitry, I'm getting more forgetful all the time. :o
Posts about changes to rules seem very hard to find Bill - I'm relying on memory I'm afraid
If my memory is right you have to post 40 times before you can get and post personal messages
I think you have to see 2 red squares near your name
it must have changed in january I think
greetings
I love the image. Missed it the first time around, luckily it showed up in the e-mail. I am curious about the grass. Can you use the tapered line and draw a few blades of grass that way, group them, make a new brush and paint it on. When I tried this, it didn't save my tapered line I chose for the blade of grass. Instead the line is simply blocked off square on each end. It looks like grass that has been chopped off flat. I guess you have to actually draw the grass blades instead of using a tapered line. Any hints are appreciated.

Fantastic illustration, saw the feature in xara.com news. BTW, having trouble with grass too.
Jim Toal
Okay, I got it. Draw your simple strokes of grass with the taper brush (if you want it to be this simple). Group the lines. Convert to line shape and then create your brush. Add some randomness and you get some nice cartoon grass. I am not sure if this was how it was done for this illustration(I'm sure it wasn't), but it gets some decent cartoon grass. I can better illustrate if you want. Hope this helps somebody.
