    Thanks! I did it a few years ago, and at the time, I wanted texture (bumpiness) on the thread, but overdid it somewhat. Plus it's a little too thick to be on a thread bobbin. Perhaps mooring cable?

    If you modeled it as a skein of yarn it would be perfect.

    I stumbled upon this in a folder this morning, and thought it was "Gallery-Worthy".

    I created it five years ago, according to the file date; I'd been pitching a book on Xara for almost ten years before my agent and I sealed a deal in 2009. This was one of the cover illustration ideas that didn't make it. Initially I was puzzled over why I did the Swiss Army Knife in red, and then remembered that it was a theme colour several versions ago on the splash screen.

    Time flies and house flies,

    Because it's been in the mid-40°s (F) all week, I thought I'd manifest a little tropical relief before the holiday season sets in!

    I can see why the beach is empty Gary.
    Hopefully you managed to escape the Tsunami as well.

    Fabulous drawing though.

    Thanks!

    Okay, back to Autumn again. I created this piece in modo and Vue; the client wanted something exceptionally photorealistic.

    That is very photorealistic, it certainly has that ambiance about it. We have a 3D challenge going in the 3D forum, everyone is welcome to join in with what ever 3D software you like.

    I think my reputation precedes me on the 3D forum, Frances. I was a moderator there until about 6 years ago, when I just proved to be too thin-skinned.

    I think I've stayed at the Motel, Gary.
