Thank You!

Will see what brings the new Year! Maybe what fotorealistic? I don't know.

So, finally I’m done with the drawing.
Everything is hand-drawn with and in Xara Designer Pro+.
All objects are real vectors. For drawing I only used the Shape Painter Tool.
The only exception is...

Thanks Gary,
Bert will see your stereogram but Ernie no. My right eye is weaker and I can't see 3-D.

I think sunday I'll finish this journey.

Thanks all who join here in.

@ handrawn: yes on snout is in German not that what is intended.
@ Larry and Egg: thanks!
@ Gray: yes passion is needed, like in your fantastic drawings of planes, cars and so on …

Thanks guys...

Finally I have some time to continue working on my woodcut.
Here’s a small part that I drew today. It’s a lot of work and I hope to finish the drawing this year.

Remember all shapes are vector...

Thanks handrawn, all save! My son comes next week with his familly for a week to visit us.
We enjoy it and hope the wether is fine too.

Hi Xaraistis,
a small new part is ready. Damn'd that's a lot of work to finalize the drawing. I don't give up! Stay tuned for more progress next time.

Have all a nice weekend and stay health....

Again: Thank you all for the kind words. This will me push up to finalise the drawing.
And yes you said it: the last part is that one with the most details. This would be a hard part to draw but I...

Thank you guys.
I'll see when I am finaly finished it.

In May of this year I started working for a new publishing house. Since then, I haven’t had time to work on the drawing.
Since a week I have started drawing again, only half an hour in the evening...

@ Jonopen: you should try some varieties of Bavarian beer.

At my last job in Ireland 2018, I was in Ballycroy County Mayo for a week. In the evening, I went to the pub with friends and enjoyed...

Yaeh Boy, this is not that of Art how it looks, it's hard work.
In the tradition of the monks who brewed beer in their monasteries – I prefer to drink it.

Oh yeah I do. With the shape-painter-tool it's fiddy to got the right stroke. For somme things I need several attempts to got the right stroke.
But that is o.k. for me.
So long Xara don't quitt is...

Here is the next progres:

and here some stats:

11.788 objects, 6 Wacom Pentips are destroyed and a barrel of Bavarian Beer I needed to calm my nerves.

Since I baught my Wacom I use the hard tips. So I feel the most response for my lineart. But my old Intious is on the surface like a fine sandpaper.
I ask to change the foil – no answer from Wacom....

Thanks Egg!
But I am still not ready :'(.
It's still a lot of work to do.

And again, a little piece is finished.
So far I have used up 5 tips for the WACOM pen.
