Another coverart replica.

When i saw the picture on discogs my geometry brain centre activated and whispered:
"look, this is easy, its just circles". :hehe

A bit like a yin yang thing.....

Oh dear, my brain almost melted, but i made it :mrgreen:

basically making circle selections, changing them into paths and then filling them with color

the tricky part was, i had so many layers going on, it was sometimes hard to know where i had to subtract a bit or how to get intersections of selections

I like it; similar technique could be used for a James Bond type render. :)

That is nice. I get mixed up sometimes when I have too many layers and selections going. Then with adding, subtracting, intersecting, oh boy.

I take it from your posts you're into stuff like DnB and don't just find this stuff randomly.

correct, DnB is my main-diet musicwise :heart

in the nineties i bought loads of vinyl (i think i have around 800 records)
but today i cant be bothered to get up every 5 min to change the record :mrgreen:
and luckily i dont have to, because nowadays 99% is released in digital format
its also much cheaper: a track costs between 1-1,50€, while a record with two tracks costs around 9€

i try to get artwork for every DnB mp3 i have (around 55GB), and sometimes there is just no other way, as to make it yourself (or buy a really big scanner, but i dont think that will happen)

i embed the artwork into the id3 tag of the mp3 and the musicplayer i use (foobar) displays the picture when the track is played, and that looks like this:
