What I mean is the way you get an idea of what the yard will look like by drawing the lines and what not on a jpg, doesn't give me any real good feedback. So this is what I did:
On a piece of pressed board that is 16 inches by 48 inches long, I recreated 1 mega tree, 1 mini mega tree, 2 arches (will modify 1 to have 3 instead), 10- 5 feet high handmade trees, and the rest of the trees I have in my yard which are represented by a single light. It isn't pretty but it gives a much better idea of what it looks like when I use the Aurora sequencer and the template. Did anybody else do such a thing? It took me a week to build by taking 4 sets of 35 C-5 light bulbs incandescent and added plugs to each of them so I could insert them to their appropriate channels. When I look at it, it reminds me of a miniature yard with carnival ride/amusement rides. When I turn the D-light utility and let the lights turn on shimmer and random, it's quite magical. Oh and the heat that comes from it....ouch! |

If BigDPS doesn't reply it is because he burned down his house from the afrementioned heat during a rather intense part of a sequence... just kidding!
Sounds interesting.

I have to redo my sequences to include the arches. When I do have one
completed, I'll post a video on youtube.
Is there a way to insert pictures on here without having to upload them to image bucket for example? |
