In The Crosshairs...

I wanted to replicate this crosshair/reticle image seen below.
Thanks to Ofnuts suggestion, I was able to do so with the nice Python plug-in that he recommended called, "Dial-Marks".
As you can see it came out really nice, nearly perfect.
This was a rather complicated thing to replicate, due to the different size lines and dashes needed to recreate it.

Look...

Thanks you guys. :bigthup

It wasn't easy. I had to make about 8 different dials for this image to look right. I'm very happy with the results.

Thanks K1! :bigthup

Incidentally, the reticle image I replicated is a screenshot I took while playing the game World of Tanks.
I pointed my tanks gun at the sky to try and get the best possible image of the full reticle.

You heard correctly, it's considered one of the best Free To Play MMO's out there.

Wallace, that is "genial". When will I be able to do something like that? You have so many abilities and talent. :bigthup

Thanks Issabella.
The image I recreated came out well, but I wouldn't describe it as being "genial".
I was having much difficulty at first, but I had to find the correct tool for the job. If it wasn't for Ofnuts suggestion to try the "Dial-Marks" plug-in, I may have never been able to recreate the image.
