OCR: X PAINTING WITH FLINX -- PART #3 X Yo!Hi!Hello! Bonjour ! Terve! Selam!Connichiwa ! Sdrastwuj! Salve! Moin! Erm. . . okay, let's start! Ignition! (Bang!) Urgh .. . calm down! Well, as you can see, I Managed to tame my DPaint, so I can again tell all of you what you already <now for ages. This time I'll give you some simple(st) instructions how to achieve a simple metal-effect and how to use perspective .. . To be honest, I would have preferred something more sophisticated, but as I promised this here, .. first of all, begin like always with the palette. 8 colours are enough, they go from a light grey to a dark grey-brown or something similar. We'll use this one: __ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Ist step: Draw your stuff in the style shown here with a light and a dark face. You should know how to do so, 2nd step: Press "P" to get the Palette-requester and mark two ranges, one of them including the colors 2-5, the other one containing #5-8. 3rd step! We'll now press F7 to activate color-cycling. Now fill the light faces by drawing cycling lines from the one end to the other one.
