Spiro-engraving

[ivan louette]

Another kind of Spirograph effect can be obtained making brush with groups of very tiny objects (very close to dots in size).

Here I have grouped only the sliced extremities (points) of a 8 branchs star.
With a minimal spacing in the brush and varying other settings one can obtain nice engraving effects like shown in my second post.

I will also send the .xar file.

Enjoy,

ivan

One can also reach more linear brushes!
And here I show some dissolve effects obtained in breaking curves at points and progressively modifying the settings for each part.

As you will see, this is allways the same brush only with different settings.

IMPORTANT! Before converting your objects to brushes, convert their lines to shapes, otherwise some strange things may arise in the line width of the objects inside complex brushes.
