that's the most beautiful of all those (im)perfection effects! really looks like it would go well with a fake arabic font too. hmm... i wonder what it would look like on some paisleys.....

Totally gorgeous. Esper should also do tutorials on "good taste". He has a huge potential audience on the net (present company excepted of course :mrgreen:

i didn't have time to wait for a tutorial, i had to try the "arabian nights effect" on a couple of paisleys at once - made it this morning, before my external hard drive fell seriously ill and gave me other things to think of. i don't think it turned out too bad, though it's a little bit jagged. probably from the curve contour.

posting it like "arabian nights" had the exact same effect :hehe

I do not know if it would be possible to do better!
He seems to be in 3D, and very crystalline! Congratulations!
