How to Paint a Car Picture

admin — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 22:57:15 +0000

So why is painting a picture of a car so hard compared to say a flower? Well, the main thing here with cars is if you don’t carry out every line in perfect proportion, if you just happen to make one little mistake then it can completely ruin the whole painting. The reason behind this is our brains are very good at remembering shapes and details around it. While a pink tulip can have different shades, come in different sizes, have different leaves etc, a car model remains the same, so when faced with a difference our brain will tend to spot it right away.

The idea is when you decide to start your next car painting, try to take your time and don’t rush the early stages, i am referring here to the part where you try to get all of the proportions right before starting to shade or paint your creation. Don’t let it get you down if you are not extremely talented with shading techniques or not the even the best with colors when you draw cars. The fact of the matter is, if you don’t manage to get the proportions right at the beginning the end result is usually a disaster. So you need to understand before going any further how important it is to get the proportions right. Which leaves us with the question of How do you do it? How do I do it?

Your first step is to start out with a clean sheet of paper, most preferably a pretty big one. Then go and find a picture of a car that inspires you to draw, a good picture of a car. This picture will now be used as a reference for your car painting or drawing.

Start of by drawing some soft lines on the paper, you want to try and get the general box proportion right. By box proportion I am referring to the most basic lines of the drawing such as the roof and bottom of the car. After having accomplished that, then start by adding on to your picture the front or rear of the car. This will probably be determined by how the car is positioned on your reference picture.

When you feel like you have done this and feel as if you have really nailed those lines well, then the next step will be to move on and start adding the small details to your picture such as the door handel’s, windows and the headlights ect. The next tip here is to not start doing the wheels to early because those are usually the hardest part. When you are happy with your overall lines of your car painting/picture then do the wheels. Then you need to take a well deserved break. Yes you heard right, make a cuppa take a time out. Why you might be asking? Well, this is an important step of the creation process as when you come back in an hour or so you will probably start to notice little things that need to be corrected which you didn’t happen to notice while you were drawing the car. So now add the small details and remember don’t start to shade and paint the car until you feel very satisfied with the cars shape and details. When you fell like you are happy with your design, then I would suggest you start to shade it carefully. Now how you shade it correctly is whole other topic topic, which I will be covering on my next article.

Solar Energy History

Sat, 29 May 2010 09:58:04 +0000

Solar energy history can be traced back to a hundred years ago. Although there are many people using solar power and looking for ways to install solar power systems at home nowadays, solar energy history began just a hundred years ago.

People have discovered that the reliance on imported oil may lead to many problems. The price of it fluctuates because its sources are mainly located in unstable areas. Crisis may lead gas price to go up, meaning that the users have to pay more money, and even worse, the supplies would be cut anytime.

With the increase of population, it can be foreseen that the energy that we are using now will disappear one day. People realize that if they keep relying on that kind of energy, they will face a disaster. They will not have any energy to power their homes, cars, offices and everything.

To avoid those problems, people are looking for an alternative energy that is more stable and cost-effective.

More importantly, they want to find an energy which causes less pollution to our environment.

Solar energy becomes the first choice of scientists and citizens. One of the reasons is that, compared to traditional energy like oil and coal, the cost of solar energy is much lower. Also, because of more tax incentive programs carried out by the government, more people are trying to install solar power system for homes.

It is not surprising to scientists because they have studied this kind of solar use for lots of years. A study of a French mathematician carried out a hundred year ago can be seen as the beginning of the solar energy history. The study has encouraged other scientists. More and more solar power companies have been set up to continue to experiment and develop the use of solar energy in both industrial and residential fields.

The effort of scientists and solar power companies did not make solar energy popular among the public at that time.

But most people started to be aware of the importance of solar energy when they discovered the serious problems of the shortage of current sources of energy. The threats alter people to think about the potential of employing solar energy.

People are now more interested in the solar technology. The number of solar panels built for homes is increasing very fast. It is mainly because the process of having solar power for homes becomes easy.

There are lots of information and solar power programs found on the Internet. They are low-cost but their instructions are clear and easy-to-follow. Basically everyone can build a functional solar system for houses by following the step-by-step guide. Some programs even offer videos to help you learn the process much easier. It is no doubt that the most poplar source of energy must be solar power in future.

Considerations for Moving From a Small Business Server to a Cloud-Based Infrastructure

admin — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 09:30:32 +0000

Cloud based computing and sharing of information is a very exciting new era for IT. These cloud-based technologies will definitely be the future.

However, when it comes down to it, your business is your livelihood and we need to take a cold and hard look at these applications and decide whether the technology is stable and mature enough to support us effectively.
Question: First, we must ask ‘Why do you want to move to the cloud?’. You might think that the answer is obvious. However, have a think about it seriously and note down all of the reasons why your office server can’t do what you need it to. The answers to this question will be very important collectively they will determine the most appropriate systems to consider.
Decisions: Assuming that the issues raised by the above question can’t be resolved by a change to the existing server setup, we then need to consider the technical positives and negatives of the available systems and decide whether the pros out-weigh the cons.
New Technology: It is extremely important to note that, although individuals have been using some of these newer cloud-based systems for a while now, scaling these systems up to cope with multi-user and sharing is still quite new and is often not without issues.
Excitement vs Disaster: To a certain extent, your job as a customer is to get excited about the new technology but my job is to try and anticipate all of the ‘what if’ scenarios. I need to do my best to prevent any issues. These may range anywhere between major system restrictions and unforeseen events.
Backups: Traditional backups systems involve taking a copy of your data away from where it naturally resides on a regular basis and ensuring that this happens. There is an argument to say that if the data lives in the cloud, then copying the data to your own laptop on a regular basis would be considered to be an off-site backup. However, this can be flawed by un-monitored (by me) local system malfunction, human error and laziness. We need to consider ways of preventing data loss being made worse by these factors.
Setup & Migration Costs:Using new technology does come at a price. Not because we intend to add a premium but simply because there are more unknowns associated with a project which is un-proven and which could add delays or expense related to producing work-arounds. Wherever possible, we will attempt to anticipate the pitfalls in order to budget for a solution but this is definitely something to bear in mind.

Selecting a Cloud Based Solution

Selecting the product that best fits the business model can be quite difficult. Products that have been around for a while tend to have a better support network around them from other users. However, newer products may claim to suit your needs better but may not necessarily have an established support network. Choosing the wrong product can be a costly exercise especially if you are forced to switch to a different product later.

If an established product doesn’t quite fit your needs, it may pay you to wait for future enhancements to the product rather than go off in search of an obscure system with little or no support.

Arguably, currently the most popular cloud-based solutions for file sharing and email:

Dropbox
Easy to use. Lots of people use it making it fairly easy to find support. Sharing is possible although setting permissions is a very manual process and you can’t set different permissions on sub-folders. Some folder manipulation tasks are difficult or tedious. One large premium Dropbox account could be shared with several free Dropbox user accounts in order to save money. Proper reliable automated backups could be an issue due to Dropbox being an application rather than a service.

Gmail
Possible alternative to Exchange. Cost is about 30 – 40 per user per year. Sharing is possible. Tasks, Notes and some other bits don’t sync with Outlook. This is just for Mail, Contacts & Calendars. Excellent spam filtering – Among the best in the world. Email ‘Search on server’ function on iPhone doesn’t work, doesn’t appear to have ever worked and I’ve seen no sign of a fix. So, if you’re looking for an old email then you’ll have to wait until you can get to your laptop. Extremely poor support. Google is renowned for offering promises of good support but actually failing to deliver anything at all. I suggest you should consider support from Google to be non-existant. Proper reliable automated backups could be an issue.
