VW Hand Grenade ***Request Critique*** First Drawing

Post by large_time »

Well guys and gals,

Tonight I fired up my little laptop and gave InkScape a try out.

I found a picture of this VW Logo that looks like a hand grenade and gave the trace function a click and then I moved the nodes around and this is what I have.

Please let me know if this looks good or not, this is my first attempt and truthfully all I know if that it is in the DXF format... and from the looks of things all of the nodes are connected.

All constructive comments will be appreciated!


My Flashcut version 1... (soon to be updated to SheetCam) does not recognize this R13 .DXF format.... time for an upgrade for me...

Thank you both for the file, I just saw a Peace Grenade decal today, I'm going to use the grenade for something else, as well as 2 gifts for some VW owners I know, so Thank you! ;)
