Helen's Graphics (UPDATE--NEW images!!')

[LFC4EVER]

Hmmm.. perspective is odd in this one too.

Its solvable for checkers though.

Render a square checkerboard. On a new layer using the paintbrush, draw where you want the pieces to be. Then on another new layer add symbols or w/e. Then on the checkerboard layer use Rotate/Zoom to get it into perspective. Then apply the same transformation to the other layers with the pieces and symbols. Use outline object on the pieces layer to make them more 3d like. Move them up a few pixels so it looks right.

Awesome work though. Loving the engrave effect on the pieces.

P.S. the board itself is a bit odd though. See the far left end where it gets cut off and doesn't end at a square.

KIU.

I'll keep it at that and say that life isn't perfect. Thanks there, buddy.

I got to admit it is better than your first checkerboard piece. Love the color scheme in this one, and the glossiness of the board.

I think you've done really well on that checkerboard. Its difficult to get all the items just so. but you've done a remarkable job.

@Storm: I got accepted to the certification program (Graphic Arts) and I just hope I will get help paying for it now. I still tried to make this checkerboard a little more realistic. Thank you so much!

@Oma: Gosh, Oma you made me feel so much better. :wink:

Congratulations! I knew you would get in, I always had, and never had any doubt. They would be a fool not to accept you, and now you can wow them with your mad skill.

Thanks, Oma. In fact, Andy IS trying to fly. He's trying to see if his invention works.

Welshblue, I'm glad I did. I didn't want to make anything too complex because I wanted Andy and his inventions to be focused on more. Thank you for your kind words.

Looks like Andy is ready to bounce himself to the moon...the question is...will he return safely, or will we see the last of him? That's the question I ask when I saw your image. Good job, Helen.

Let's Call It a Tie..very nice you solved it with this smart conversion, ( did you just turned it upside down? )I like the colors very much in this version well done HELEN and congrats.

And Andy is awesome, I just worried about his neck when starts fly, that's why they said don't leave old cars parts and devices in the garage .I love the circle red stones floor especially the bevel touch, it's amazing and the left hand move also it's a professional touch. thanks.
