    Default Lock-down doodling.

    I came across an image effect on the web that i thought I'd try and reproduce in my lock-down isolation (I do have my bestest friend, my wife with me that makes it bearable, so not complete isolation)

    This is the effect i created and I attach the xar file to reproduce it.

    That really looks great Egg!
    Do you really need to convert to editable shapes? I tried to skip that step and didn't see a difference. The advantage of skipping the step would be to be able to edit the text after soft-grouping.

    I love it Egg, it seems I am constantly "borrowing" things from you and this is one more. It is like a mini tutorial because I not only gained a new script but learned something about brushes.

    Thanx

    Looks very convincing Egg.

    Mary and I are basically introverts so staying at home is very natural for us. We have only gone out three times in 8 weeks. We're doing our part.

    I hope you get the exercise

    there is a report that lockdown can be as detrimental to health as 15 cigs a day...

    I am not a gregarious person, but I miss my rock climbing, at least I am in the countryside and have bridlepaths to walk

    Thanks Peeps. I think it's a difference between 12 & 17 Siran.

    Yes HD, getting enough excerise walking the dog on the beach every day. Old Bill pulled alongside the car yesterday and wanted to know where we were from. Happy that we were locals but said people were still traveling long distances for picnics etc. Just hate not going to shops etc, my Daughter does all our shopping. Mostly miss the Pub!

    Oh Egg, do be careful, especially with the "Soft Croup" [typo in design file!].
