This is excellent! I never went as far as this to tell the truth. Not 
inspired enough probably :-)

However, this is an excellent procedure which I shall note carefully 
down for future use. My HowTo's are expanding...

Another way using the sdl, would be through pigment_pattern use I guess. 
I know! I "discovered" those recently and now I am proselytising in my 
naive enthusiasm. ;-)

The great thing about these ng's is the mutual stimulation and 
inspiration. I have not experienced it to this high degree anywhere else.
