Roman Numeral XIII

A low 13 string lol ! This is for Joey's Roman Numeral Challenge. I have been a good girl and not used an eraser, however tiles no. 1 & 2 did go in the rubbish bin !! I don't find Verigogh easy. I see other people make lovely branches from it and also beautiful feathers using it but mine remain basic no matter how much I practise, so in one tile I just make the X from two of the pine needles and a berry and for the other tile I just dangled the tip of it in from the top.

I have been meaning to try Ipso for a while now so this was a good opportunity. Sadly I couldn't really work out from the step out exactly where you are meant to thicken the line so I don't really think it is drawn as it should be. For the ruffles I decided to draw half cruffles in both of the tiles.

Here are the two tiles which didn't go into the rubbish bin and I am calling a halt :-) I am now looking forward to seeing what artistic things everyone else has done with these tangles.

    I like your Mini-Verdigogh in the first tile:-) My favorite is the second tile! Great ideas!

    Great tile! I have trouble with Verdigogh, too...mine always looks so sloppy! You taught me something, tho: I didn't realize that the lines of Ipso were to be thickened and darkened. Guess I need to look at the directions again!!

    I too had a bit of wondering where to thicken the lines of Ipso, but I think you nailed it in the second tile making it look like a ribbon. :) I like how you wrapped garlic clove around chemystery in the second tile, very cool. :)

    Great tiles! Your persistence paid off. I really like what you did with Ipso in the 2nd piece.

    Well done! I feel the same as you about Verdigogh. Free style tangles is not really me!

    I like both tiles. I agree with the others, Verdighog isn't easy to draw.
