Making a bow..

[LiO]

I have been looking around in cyber for a tutorial for making a
BOW....on a ribbon. Just the BOW tutorial.

I have been surfing around, try to find in in cyber but IT SEEMS I`M
REALLY BAD to find the right "searchwords". I have ended up on som archbows too etc..

Then i remember that I can ask here because i have always got so much help before from here.

So do anyone know where to find this tutorial - link, site etc.
I really do appreciate it.

Hi Lio ...

You will find bow tutorials on several sites but to be honest I haven't found one yet that makes a realistic bow.

I makes the ones in my kits by a combination of painting in the shape using tools like dodge & burn .. it gives a realistic bow but its really a painting exercise which is very difficult to convert into a tutorial.

Wendy, I have been practicing the dodge and burn some, and of course the great shear effect that i learned from you. (i love this one). Here is my try at a bow.
