Christmas Balls 2

[Brian Dowling]

This is a family history website illustration featuring the Christmas Balls 2 script.  Simple to use with nothing to prepare or remember.  The difference with this and Christmas Balls 1 is only really the patterns being different, as far as I can see.  These seem a little more intricate but both scripts give pleasant and different results.  I used identical balls here to go with the twin's theme.  The second one was also reduced in scale a little.  I tilted them towards each other... but only a little so as not to render the shading too out of kilter with the light source.

 

I added some shading on the second ball by using drop shadow from the first on a different layer and then, making a selection of the second ball with the selection tool, I inverted it to delete the shadow everywhere else but on the second ball...

Brian, did you upload an image? If so, I can't see it. I like to follow your work.

Hi Ann,

 

His page is under Trees I had asked him about the charm tubes in his picture.

Not sure what happened there, but I have added the image now.
