ReMark Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Anyone with a digitizer could "trace" the dragon so it would be fairly representative of the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I looked up the welsh flag and thought it was so cool,Thought I'd try to trace the image, never did that before, I welcome comments or suggestions of better ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riga Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Great job. Wich software did you use to vectorialize the raster? Just a couple of corrections in colouring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Thanks I notice the same thing and was fixing it too. There was probably a bettter way to do this but I took a Tiff image into photoshop 4.0 and selected the colors and deleted them and imported the outline into AutoCad and traced over it. It would be nice if it could be imported as lines and curves, I don't know how though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cymro Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Wow that was quick and an excellent reproduction, Did one a few years back but not as detailed as this Many thanks Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riga Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 In in the past some members were asking about programs that vecorialzes images, and often their question was answered with the suggestion of imsert the image as a draw model and trace it from scratch. Just to demonstrate how better is the result optained by GhostRider who traced the dragon with help of a raster image I post the result I get using wintopo (a free image to vector converter). Pretty bad, Well, I'm not expert with that kind of program so I guess that a better result can be optained (I did all automaically, and then I've not edit the result in Autocad because I wanted it done as fast as I could but showing the limits of those programs) but I seriusly doubt that it can be done as good as the one GhostRider posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Riga, Thanks for the example and explanation I was wondering how to actually convert to something Autocad can use other than an image, I am going to try to play with this software see how well it vecorialzes images I use or need. This is the Jpg image I ended up with, I had to convert it to a TIFF to import it to Autocad to trace, thought it would be a good addition to show the method used. In 3 months here reading and playing with exercises posted I've learned more than ever before, everyone that contributes here is great !!
