Variations On A Theme
-
On Friday my brother called and asked me to design a sort of Arts and Crafts style doorbell cover to replace the ugly plastic one he had. I sketched out a few otptions. Thought I'd show them here.
Larger version here.He built the one second from the left, bottom row. I like the one in the lower right corner.
-
I like the second from the left, top row, though his and your favorites are sorta tied for second best.
-
Lower right corner is my favorite too. Nice Dave... maybe this will bring my machines out of hibernation soon and I will build my own.
-
Eric, we're gonna get you covered in sawdust yet.
-
I gotta tell ya, I'd also go for the second from left, bottom row.
Beautiful stuff, Dave.How did you make the picture? It's got such a beautiful "recently discovered DaVinci sketch" to it.
I hope you don't need Photoshop or anything like that. Can this be done purely in SU? -

In this case it is a combination of my Old Paper style which I posted in the Styles section and one of Ross' line styles from Form Fonts. the only post production was a bit of auto-contrast in Picasa to darken things up.
-
OMG, you did that on the back of an original copy of the constitution.
-
Dave, I like the way you display your projects. Beside the fact that they are always very nice, they also have very attractive styles.
-
Thank you Luca.
As Roger has discerned, I have access to some very rare paper for these images.
I was thinking that I need to find the photo of the one my brother actually made and post that.
-
I like them all but will cast my vote for bottom right with 2nd from left botton row as a close back up.
-
Thanks Ron,
This was originally posted about a year ago. I keep thinking I'll make ne but I haven't done it yet. I guess since I did these for my brother and he did build one, it was successful.
-
Oops, one of these times I'll have to look at the submitted dates to see when the thread started. Color me red!
-
No worries Ron.
