    I've rebuild some well known Optical Illusions with Xara Xtreme.

    Nice work Remi, have you tried putting them in Xara 3 d just to see what happens?

    This is a quick test in X3D. I've used my first picture from this thread. As expected, a simple extrusion function isn't enough to create these forms in 3D...

    Remi,
    If you would be kind enough to send them as xar files I would like to see what I might be able to do with them.

    Hi Wayne,

    here is the first drawing as .XAR file. But remember, it's called a "impossible" object, therefore it could be very difficult to construct it as 3D object.

    Regards,
    Remi
