Well I am still having fun with your terrific lighthouse Marcello, so here are some variations on a theme; but I wish I could draw too!

OMG: I like a lot your variations!
do you want another lighthouse?

@Marcello - thank you for allowing me the privilege to play with your sketches. I am not a nautical freak but I do love lighthouses. Anyway I had a play and put your sketch into a different 'light' ( :hehe

) with a low setting sun and an ultra modern lamp system glowing on top.

... and a 'lighting enffect', bumped version using as an e-map, one of the metallic gradients that Jamac4k made available a couple of days back.

Dinasset and OMG Wow!!! Lovely outcomes! :clap

here humbly mine.

the big battle between OMG and Issabella on painting lighthouses!
I like such games!

OMG and Issabella : you are fantastic!
In my sketch collection I have a strange lighthouse...(Point of Shoals -Virginia)

@Marcello - thank you; something I posted when I first joined GIMP CHAT was 'you guys lead and I will follow'; I need to be pushed along.

@Issabella - I always enjoy your excellent outcomes, they are artistic and more subtle than my interpretations.

@Dinasset - I do not know what to say!

Not much time available today - so just a quick contribution ...

OMG, nice way of transforming the lighthouse in an extraterrestrial scene!
Even when you have little time, you always succeed...

I used to travel a lot now that I am retired less...but I like very much to sketch
and Rome is...Rome!
If you keep the street on the left of my drawing you will go to the Teatro Marcello, am I remembering well?

Marcello, I enjoy each one of your drawings. I've been a little busy but I'm in your thread. :bigthup

When will you travel to your loved Rome? Think about it

Issabella · **Posted:** Sun May 17, 2015 3:06 pm **(#57)**

Here my tries, Marcello. It's very nice lighthouse.

Issabella : sepia and engrave is the best in my opinion.
thank you to work with my sketches!
what about this dog!

Marcello, thank you for your comments, but I should really thank you for the impetus you provide with your lovely sketches ... so here is my version of the little dog
