Hay Rik, I guess great minds do think alike. I thought of, "To infinity and beyond" a few days ago when I started in on this one. For me, buzz light year is the icon for infinity and beyond. I cheated a bit by using the bitmap trace for the face. When I seen your post today, I decided I had to finish it. Sometimes when I get started on a project, it can become overwhelming. this was one of them. Perseverance paid off. Thanks for the push.

Nice one, Paul. That looks so great. I've never used the bitmap trace. So, that's one thing I could learn, I suppose?!
I just get the Shape Tool, and set about whatever I'm trying to draw.

The idea for mine is that the laser from the observatory is pointing out into space, and going on for ever - pointing to 'infinity'.
So, trying to represent the topic "Infinity".
And I couldn't resist the tag line, 'To Infinity And Beyond'. Seemed to fit the drawing and the topic.

Thank you Rik. Cartooning is not my forte and it would have taken me a bit of time to get the face down. This thread moves to fast for that. The bitmap trace works in a pinch.

I understood your drawing. Very well done. I like your work. It's very clean and crisp. I just thought it was interesting seeing that phrase when I had a project in the hoppers along the same lines as your tag.

Thanks for your kind comments, meganredfern.
I see that you don't list any Xara software in your profile?!
Why not purchase one, and start on the best drawing journey you will have.

I wanted to have another go with my drawing and make a few changes.
What do you think?

The background definitely improves it, Rik

God, Rik, that's magnificent, without any reference to Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), who used the phrase excessively in all the Toy Story flicks!

Superb, subtle, really a pinpoint's view of Infinity.

My Best,

Gary

(yeah, I was out of commission for the good part of this week. After breaking my leg, it was kidney stone time; got two of the suckers out the hard way. I'm afraid if the Fates aren't done, they'll double-down and I'll be struck by lightning or the Earth will open up and swallow me. So it goes, Billy Pilgrim.)

I really enjoyed doing that one.

What's more important is that I'm sure we're all glad that you are better.

That's very good, Fred.
I like it. A great idea.
