John Wayne

[penman]

Hi all,

I have been asked to do a line sketch in wood of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood.

I have had a quick look on the web and can not seem to locate any for John Wayne. Have not looked for Clint E. but wondered if anyone had a EPS or DXF that they would be willing to share.

Regards,

Roger.

I googled John wayne under the image category and then clicked line art. Many to choose from. Similar results for Clint Eastwood.
Depending on the software you have these images can be converted to vectors. Inkscape is a free downlad that will convert jpgs to vectors.

Hi Phil,

it was late at night over here when I seen Jacks reply, so thought I would try his suggestion in the morning. No real urgency, I have a week or so up my sleeve.
Got up this morning and checked the forum and seen your reply. Thank you so much for locating such a selection of both for me. Exactly what I was looking for. No problem to trace thank you. You have also taught me another way to search, certainly with far superior results.

Thanks again,

cheers,

Roger.

Hi Phil,

yes I will post them when it is done. Could be a week or so away as I
am fairly busy at the moment and the customer is not in a hurry.

Thanks again and

cheers,

Roger.
