A Dozen Vector Gears
by Gary Bouton (Gare online)
It’s ClipArt Giveaway in October, and Gary has used part of his wits and most of his mind creating almost perfect gear illustrations based on a wrist watch that fell into our sink’s garbage disposal. Use them in logos, technical illustrations, extrude them, use them in Xara 3D and animate them! Gary’s going to show you how to create gears and other circularly symmetrical shapes in October’s tutorial, so let’s roll on this theme!
Discuss this giveaway in the Xara Xone forum on TalkGraphics.com
has been drawing with traditional tools for almost 40 years, and with digital tools such as Xara for close to 20. As large a fan as he is a practitioner, Gary encourages others to express themselves artistically through his writing, the over 25 books on graphics he’s had published, through the videos and tutorials he creates for The Xara Xone, and through his online school, Exclamations. You can send him some email, visit his personal website, or better yet drop on over to the Xara Xone Forum on TalkGraphics and talk to Gary and the rest of the Xara community.
