Gold and Chrome Xara Xone Tutorial

Here are a few more things you might try if you still have the original brush stroked outline. Select the line with the Freehand and Brush Tool (you have to select one at a time, otherwise the Edit Brush button will be disabled) and change the Rotation Changes By: Adding: and try different settings to create the striped effect shown above. Smaller settings are better. A setting of say 15 or 20 will produce stripes that are two close together. But experiment and discover this for yourself.

Finally, another thing I tried afterwards was instead of the Circular filled circle that we placed over the end of the a shape, you can modify the brush angle until the fill aligns with the rest of the object. While this works, however, the effect is not as realistic as the way we did it. But, it never hurts to experiment.

Feedback is always appreciated. Please use the feedback form on the next page to send me your comments and questions. I will do my very best to get back to you. I can always tell when the Xara Ltd. newsletter comes out because I get a lot of responses to the previous month's tutorial.
