    Post Its vector, guys, all separate objects!

    As always this is using Xara, so they are all vector objects. I can do just the pagoda, just the trees, just the pond, pagoda with trees, pagoda with trees and pond no reflection or as above with everything.

    Oh and today, I am halfway to 92 years old!

    Here are a few pictures my wife inherited from her father who received them as a present from a relative who brought them from Japan, sometime after WWII.

    Hopefully, this will give you some inspiration even if they are a slightly different style.

    Thanks! If anyone knows the translations, I would love to find out. My wife has found some information on them, but is not 100% sure of the artist.

    Heh the guy in green in the first one looks like he has a lions head. Nice work though.

    Wip Last two walking path objects

    Lion's head ??!!! Its supposed to be a samurai hairdo. Got more from different angles in the last Walking Path objects - north to south and northwest to southeast...

    These were a pain in the ass. Drawing them no problem, but coloring them in all the different colors and pattern mixes and layering, a true pain in the ass! So at least I'm finished with these, I don't see the farm wagons and mounted samurai as being any easier - harder in fact as I don't have immediate sources to work from, I'll have to hunt down some photos to do them and fake some of them as I won't find all the angles... more fun up ahead!

    I had a quick go at putting together the beautiful drawings that GP has provided and this is what I came up with after about 10 minutes. The only non GP provided elements are the ground, sea, sky, moon and the foreground tree (which is some badly converted clipart of a bonsai tree). GP, you might want to make some foreground elements for 'framing' purposes, but your elements are a dream to use.

    Some which I wanted to use here I couldn't because the perspective was different, (e.g. the castles), but most of them (as you can see) work really well with each other.

    Fantastic work GP!!!
