    Here's my effort Rik. Close but no cigar, but it is all vector. One could play around with it and get it fairly close.

    Thanks for your input, Steve and gray.

    gray: Let us all know what you did and how you did it.

    I have also been looking at what I did.
    And found that I didn't really need to create a bitmap copy.

    So, I've attached the new way I did it.

    Rik, I just draw the shapes and add fills, transparencies and feathering till I get the look I want.

    This image is impossible. It breaks all rules of light and form. Why would you want to recreate this other than making an optical illusion? :P

    Might as well put my Escher's and Picasso's on the heap then.

    I'll take them off your hands, Acorn. Save you putting them on the heap.

    Actually, it's not impossible ... If you imagine the outline of the R as a cookie cutter, then you will get what Rik drew.
