        Hi Sigitas, hi folks.

        Draw a circle and scale it along one axis.

        Just ideas.

          Hi Sigitas,

          Merry Christmas for you, too.

          As for the ellipses...

          Method 1: draw a circle and scale it in one direction only. This is easy, fast but not very accurate as you will end up with unequal segment lengths - but if you want it for a logo like that, it doesn1t count.

          Method 2: with a plugin:

            Thanks all,
            i got good idea how to do. For better quality i make jus 1/4 circle and scale it to ellipse size. Latter just mirror and complete the ellipse. I got exactly what i need. 😍

              Solar Ellipse or Lunar Ellipse? πŸ’š

              If I make it look easy...It is probably easy
