drawing cylinders and lines - and adding some shadows...

[saint_m]

are we able to draw such a image in GIMP


Well i guess that the cylinders will be placed on the drawing panel in GIMP so that we have them ( lets say we take the number of 10 cylinders ) - all over the drawing panel.

then - in a second step i try to draw the line - and thirdly




Well - i think that we can do this with the GIMP. This would be a somewhat difficult task because the shadow would be hard to achieve...

What do you say!?

well unfortunatley i am not allowed to add any data.

everytime i add a image i  get this:


Request Entity Too Large
The requested resource does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.


so what can i do now!? shouold (/could) i add some images to imgur

The file size limit for Gimp xcf is 2 MB Other formats 500 kb which is usually plenty for a jpeg. 

However do use imgur and post a link as  https://i.imgur.com/57FLW98.jpeg Just that part of the link and that jpeg is only 346 kb

That shows a cylinder using Filters -> Map -> Map Object see: https://testing.docs.gimp.org/3.0/en/plu...bject.html
the long sausage shape comes from gmic lathe filter

But these are only one at a time.
