    Default lamp

    A quite simple object, screw mount apart, copied from a photo. All vector shapes, using only the mouse (having troubles with the tablet). There is a slight pink dominant, probably due to a not perfect camera's white balance setting, but I left as in the original. lupen

    Hi Lupen.

    I just gave someone a WOW for their artwork!

    Well, you can have two wows.

    WOW! WOW!

    This is the sort of stuff I have trouble making. The round and the curved things. How to get the right shadows and reflections to make something look round, oval, circular etc...

    Any chance of a small tutorial on how you did part of the element and the screw part?

    Or part of your .xar file so I can see how you went about it?!

    It is completely amazing, I thought the chrome part was a photo.
    Congratulations

    Great image, both the glass of the bulb and the shiny threads.

    I wasn't prepared to such congratulations. I tought it was just a nice, not perfect drawing!
    To Rik: a tutorial should be better, for many reasons, but it requires lot of time, so I attach the original file. There are no secrets in my drawings. Just feathered shapes, with some linear or elliptical fills and transparencies. Enjoy it.
    Thanls again to all for comments. lupen

    Thanks a lot.

    Hope this will be helpful. Nothing to be so grateful. Seeing your logos, I am sure you already have all the technical knowledge to do better. lupen
