    Panfer..strange,I had same thoughts. I was going to tell Gary to seek out this strange "eyeball", but I'm sure he'd see it off the wall stuff.
    Thanks Panfer..

    Neat-o Bill! Now just for fun make a copy of your drawing. Select all those repeating elements and give them a single light-coloured line colour and reduce the line weight to something very fine like 0.1 pt. Then darken up the background. Zoom in and enjoy exploring the pattern created by all the fine lines. It's easy to imagine you are looking at a wireframe view of a strange & beautiful 3d object. I find the complicated spirograph-like patterns facinating. I've attached a zoomed view as an example. The white border line is 1pt!

    Regards, Ross

    Bill,

    Love your "cybereye". Looks like it could be a highly evolved species from Star Trek... all seeing and doesn't need a body anymore. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

    I have a question. Why did you put the window like reflection on the iris? Is it a statement "window on the world" or a design element that ???

    How's it goin',Mickie. Nice to hear from you..Thanks. To tell you the truth a lot of went
    into that weird eyeball is just 'foolin' around. But the Q.that ask, I did try to give the idea that it is a shinning sphere at rights..sorta rolling back from iris etc. If you didn't see it as such, then back to the drawing board. You shouldn't have to ask..the pic should tell you.
    Thanks for positive observation!
