Like Rik frequently does, here's a challenge for fellow Xarists.
Unlike Rik, this competition sucks.
Here goes: I found a free image of what appears to be a rendered model of a 1`950's type rocket ship.
The second or third thing I noticed about it, was that a rendering of this in Xara could easily replace the bitmap version here.
I think it would mage great practice on using to9ols you've ignored until now. At left here, I've begun the body, which required feathering and blend steps because there is no gradient that would imitate the slow fade from outside to in.
Why not?

Ahoj, Gary,
možno 50 krokov je lepšie, pretože 14
samozrejme pracuje pre jednoduché tvary,
ale ani zďaleka nie je nástrojom siete

Good one, Gare. A fun exercise. Hope this is what you wanted.
NOICE!
But the payoff isn't my critique or direction: it's yours, you created it, darn, but you're good!
All I did was find the image!
My Best,
Gary
I was rummaging through some clipping in a folder I didn't even realize was on a drive, and discovered a small, blurry, low-res clip of some shapes. Not usable for anything except an eye chart, so I recreated them:
I think they make cool, graphic icons and text stuff like ornaments for call-out quotes.
And I see no reason to keep 'em to myself. See attached.
Mods: I'm not posting them on the ClipArt area, because no one visits there. I'm serious—look at the lack of hits the last time I posted there.
My Best,
Gary

Those are interesting shapes, Gare.
Thanks.
Few people seem to draw anything on these graphic sites anymore. I guess everyone is playing on their phones. It's too bad, one just doesn't seem to see the interest now.More than a few have closed shop and gone.
Funny guy, acorn.
You want my job?
There's a clipart forum!?
