big paintings
Sometimes I like to go do some fun things with my imagery in Second Life. I’d tried tiling my paintings over a 2×2 grid of 10 meter boxes all lined up perfectly to each other to create a 20×20 meter grid (4 boxes). It’s fairly easy to tile an image over this. Today I wanted to see if I could upsize that to 40×40 meter grid, or sixteen boxes. I think for various reasons, my math didn’t quite add up the way I thought it would in comparison to the uploaded images, so I ended up with a slight repeat at the top and right edges of my grid. I figured the easiest way to get around this is to build a frame around the grid.
Here’s a close up of the first painting in the 16 box grid. you can just make out the 2×2 1 meter box grid next to it on the right. The second photo is two paintings next to each other. In the upper left corner of the frame on the palm tree photo, you can see me sitting down. It’s fun to think about a painting this big 
you get right up on it and look up…. wow. it makes your virtual neck hurt.
