    Default Xtreme String Art

    Though not strictly conforming to the art of creating pictures with string, this simple Blended Lines technique can produce similar 'String Art' style images, some of which produce very interesting results.
    Professionally printed and mounted, they might make striking wall hangings?

    Impressive Steve. I used to love Indian ink sketches when I was a boy at school.
    The trouble is with X4 the sky is the limit, just so many options to create great work.
    I agree they would look great mounted on the wall.

    Lovely work, Steve.
    Hope you won't mind, works well with dashed lines too.
    Saludos,

    Co-incidentally, a similar type of thing that I was doodling with yesterday - not lines but elipses on edge, blended and shaped with mould tool

    Great effect Steve.

    Maybe you could show just the various lines before the blend?
