now that's gotta be takin some time

Wow, nice work, how did u do it?

believe it or not it took about a half an hour to build take a tori and size it to your wicker size show origin handle drag it to the center of the tori at one end (not center of circumfrence)I hope that made sense. dupe it rotate it 45 degrees dupe that flip z group the three tori and dupe again Rotate Y axis 90 degrees dupe again rotate that 45 degrees Y dupe that rotate 22.50 degrees Y delete all tori standing at 180 degrees except one that one is your handle strectch handle to fit thats about it. the most impotant step is the placement of the origin handle on the first one .because after thats it's just group and dupe. Glad you like it Hawkfyr

Hi Hawkfyr, great basket comming there....waiting to see it finished....great concept,H2

Thanks H2, i'll be workin on the latttice this weekend but will prolly finish this also,not much time this past week with work and all. I hav'nt seen much from you lately H2 can we expect another masterpiece soon? lol Hawkfyr

I've been very busy latley,working on a book that's going to press the middle of may,not mine but I am doing the cover and lots of illustrations inside using Bryce and Poser. Oh I have also been playing with Mille/Vicky...H2

Cool let us see the book cover and illistrations when you can... is it a graphics related book? Hawkfyr

It isn't graphics related. It's an illustrated look at the history of Newfoundland beginning at 1000AD,when Leif Eriksson and his Viking crew landed on our shores at L'anse Aux Meadows. This year marks the 1000th anniversary, hence the Commemorative book. I can't show anything untill it's off the press and distributed....but I have a couple that won't be included, so maybe a peek soon.....H2

Cant wait I figured you wouldnt be able to show all.but peeks would be fine. Hawkfyr

hehe my fathers been workin on that book for months. btw Hawk thats a great basket i see how you did it tho it must of been quite the undertaking :P frustrating at the least.

Hawk, Is the handle going to go all the way through the basket or are you going to boolean it so just the top half remains? Nice job so far. How many eggs will it hold? - Art -

Hi Art, I did Boolean the bottom half.(GMTA) See for yourself in the Gallery how many "Eggs" it's holding. :) Hawkfyr

Well Hawkfyr you certainly did make a basket,and it's fantastic. I just veiwed it at the gallery,...very impressive....Cheers H2

Thank You very much H2, I noticed your reply and Yes I'll send you the basket, this was a fun one to make. Hawkfyr

Sorry Hawk, I assumed you were going with the logical Easter basket thing. A wider handle and some nicely colored eggs for the kiddies and there you have it. Just goes to show what happpens when one "ass-u-me(s)". Your gallery basket looks terrific! Great job! - Art -

Thanks Art, I agree about the handle, it's a bit thin especially for golden Apples, I was going to go with eggs and I still might,for an Easter Post perhaps some jelly beans and chocolate Bunnies too. Thanks again Hawkfyr
