Excellent excellent excellent...

Is there a term for using an adjective 3 times in a row to make it sound better?

It does...anyway back to the subject.

I find it quite fascinating to watch you both progress in making this art project.

(steals line from Lawrence Welk...wonderful wonderful wonderful)

BEAUTIFUL RENDERINGS BOTH! Very creative with the stickers Raymond.
Questions:
Shouldn't the tires be spinning during a burnout? Intake valves should be opened and some indication of exhaust from the cutouts?

I know from experience, in a detailed drawing it can be hard to think of every little detail.
Wonderful drawings.

The picture was taken at the point the burn out had just stopped, the front wheels were slightly blurred, the back wheel is as is.

Superb work, twice!

Well done guys, and thanks for letting us see the progress towards the final result, which is even more fascinating. It makes me feel even worse about my own complete lack of ability, but in a good way :-}

Man you people are quick!
Nice work both.

Naw, we planned it to be quick, thought the thread of the Hog Wild Challenge went on too long to hold people's interest. So grouped the layers. Yeah, we've got lots of practice, still no photocopy machines.

I'm surprised not to see any of your most excellent worl in the Xara Xone, Sally - is there any particular reason for this do you suppose?

I've been using Xara for nine years, and have been registered as sallybode for four years, and before that, I lost my idenity password or other, about an equal length of time.

No, my work is good. I can see that myself. Not that I cannot see when other people's work is good. Patience is a virtue. The forum is after keeping me a virtuous person, you see. Your work is good, great in fact Raymond. It was nice you were recognized for what you've done. I should be satisfied with what I have accomplished I have been told.

What qualification I do I lack? What's wrong with my work?
