Hi All,

  • Vector or Raster?

      Mo, can it be a mesh fill powerclipt into a circle?

      Or as you know, Jeff mostly comes up with simple solutions.

      • This is very good question....

        For real work, normally I encourage using Photo-PAINT as a partner to CorelDRAW in order to get work done.

        In this specific Challenge, I ask that only CorelDRAW be used, since that is what I did here.

        Hint: I may have converted some shapes from vectors to bitmaps inside CorelDRAW. ;-)

        • My pearls spent more time in the polisher.  Two larger ones for a closer view. Rose is from the DVD extras.

          • Is it Ok Jeff, I really Patti's pearls. It's hard to beleive they are vectors.

            • The idea: each person tries their best... :-)

              • Since the gauntlet for challenge #3 has already been thrown down,  I couldn't resist remarking that no one capture the essence of pearl--"pearlessence"-- as well as Jeff's original. The colours were right, the sheen was spot on...

                Having said that, I's an ignoramus when it comes to doing that kind of thing. Everyone's submissions were more than I'd even know where to begin.

                Good on ya...

                  It could be instructive for the community if you guys could describe the process by which you achieved your images. That way, new users could not only admire your work, but also learn how to make the best of Draw.

              • Ah yes dare I sday it?  Yes, pearls before swine!!  Wink

                A great exercise.  I'm on vacation and the graphics world can kiss my butt!  10 days of NOTHING!  Stick out tongue

              • this is for now... i'll try to make it shiner next time....

                 

              • Magnificent pearls Jeff      This is my pearl for now.
