Ranjo Ripoff

I was doodling recently and I sketched out one of Jeff's hovering robots... I thought I would take it all the way in Flash to see what would happen...

  1. Great Rick! So this is "trace bitmap" function? Print the original before filtering if that is the case.

  4. This looks great. I'd love to see it animating.

    I wonder if one more pass on your "paint stroke" background might bring it that extra little step of savvy? A texture (like painted on Canson paper)? Or a rougher, more "brushy" broken perimeter? Just something to "knock it back" that tiniest bit.

    Could Jeff's non-functional Photoshop brushes be of use here?

    One thing fo' sho': you can't miss with a Ranjo design (or a Schmitz, fer that matter).
