The June 1 Xara Xone Guest Tutorial
The June 1 Xara Xone

Miss Devious (Madalynne Crowe) really delivers the goods in this Guest Tutorial. And yes, the car may only be made of pixels and not Detroit sheet metal, but the effect is very real as well as very realistic.

Great job Madalynne!

Your comments, questions, and feedback are always welcome. These Guest Tutors put a tremendous amount of time into these tutorials and generously share their knowledge. And for the first comment, I will just add, I certainly learned a lot.

Thanks Madalynne.

Nice tutorial. Your art rocks!

I admit I had a head start.

But it was a really fun tutorial as well as a great learning experience.

The really cool trip is dragging the named body color into the Color Editor as suggested and then modifying the color. I went all over the Color Editor before settling on gold and black.
