Queen Anne (sort of)
For reasons undisclosed, I am working toward producing a set of six digital portraits of past Kings and Queens of England, entitled Logic And Leadership. The above is an image I have been working on of Queen Anne, taken from an original portrait by William Wissing.
Currently it is made entirely in Inkscape, a free vector illustration program which is a piece of cake to learn, and completely free to boot, just remember to save constantly though as it has a nasty habit of crashing without saving. The portrait will also have a bit of photo-shopping thrown in for good measure before it is exported.
Originally I was hoping to have all six images ready to be exibited at this years The Event, but due to the time consuming nature of the process I will be showing only three.
More details to follow…

Looking good so far!
Cheers, I might do it 100% Inkscape, it’s such a dream to use. My only gripe is I’d like to see a more intuitive gradient editor, and less crashes – I lost 2 and a half hours of work the other day after forgetting to hit save…
