Photo effect in vinyl
Hi all
I have recently seen an interesting effect of a photograph reproduced in strips of vinyl.
Similar to Robs one way vinyl technique however the strips vary in thickness so when you stand back from it you see a picture. 😮
How is this done?
Can I do it in say corel or do I need some expensive sign software?
Any help would be great and if you have any examples to show us that would be good too. 🙂
Thanks a lot

Hi Paul,
You can do this in Signlab, not sure about Corel though.Mike

Hi Paul
I agree with mike you can do it in SignLab
I just had a look in Corel went to trace bitmap in corel trace then used woodcut trace & got simiar effect not quite as good but you could try this & play with the settings and see what you get.
Godd luck

hi paul, yeh, mikes right signlab has that feature. been on it for years now…
i think some other packages can do it but the names slip me.
ide only really advise using this method for fairly large images, as its a pain to weed the very thin parts. -
Hay Dale you are a gem 😀
Just tried the woodcut thing and if you tweek it a bit you can get some good results
Cheers guys off to play with my new found knowledge
