What do you think? I took it from a picture of the bottom of my desk and my PC tower.

Thanks. I actually find it really easy, and I'm really bad at artistic stuff. It's just drawing lines and then bending them to fit.

I couldn't be bothered with all the wires and plugs... difficult to do and time consuming.

The basic method I used was like the method in the lineart tutorial, but for surfaces with loads of glare I used gradient fills. I'm gonna have another go in a minute.

Cool... :)

I will admit that gradient fills are much better for doing metallic surfaces. :)

The plugs and all the stuff like that is quite difficult to do.The pictures themselves can be done by anyone. It's just a case of drawing lines and bending them to fit in flash then adding fills, as Kitiara shows here (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/lineart.htm) . Glad to see that you fixed your avatar.

Thanks for the comments everyone

anyhoo, I just finished another one:
