Since Easter is fast approaching and since there has not yet been
an avalanche of posts containing Easter related material, exception
made of a few bunnies, I decided to try my hand (or keyboard :-) at
drawing something for the occasion.
So I started by drawing a simple, yet extremely important object of
our Easter tradition, an egg:
,aaadddd8888888bbbbaaa,_
,adP"'' ```""Ybaa,
,dP" ``""Yba,
,8" ``"Ya,
,P' `Ya,
,P' `Ya,
8' `8,
8 `Y
8 ,P
8, ,P'
`b, ,d"
`b, ,d"
`8, _,aP"
`Ya, _,,adP" Normand
`"Yb,,_ __,,adP""' Veilleux
`"""YYYY8888888PPPP"""'
Of course when it's plain like that it's just a regular egg. But
it only takes a few stokes of an ascii paintbrush to turn in into
this:
,aaadddd8888888bbbbaaa,_
,adP"::' 888 "Y8ba, ```::Y8aa,_
,dP" ::' ,88P ,88P' ,::: ``8"Yba,
,88' ,:: d88' d8P' :::' ,P `)88a,
,888 ::' 888 "Y8ba, ::: d' d8P`Ya,
,888P ,:: ,88P ,88P' ,::: ,P ,88' `Ya,
8888' ::' d88' d8P' :::' d' d8P ,::b,
8888 :: 888 "Y8ba, ::: 8 88' ::::b
8888 :: 888 ,88P' ::: 8 88, ::::P
8888, ::, Y88, d8P' :::, Y, Y8b `::P'
`888b `:: `88b "Y8ba, `::: `b `88, ,d"
`888 ::, 888 ,88P' ::: Y, Y8b,d"
`88, `:: Y88, d8P' :::, `b _)8P"
`Yb, ::, `88b "Y8ba, `::: _,8adP" Normand
`"Yb,::, 888 ,88P' __::adP""' Veilleux
`"""YYYY8888888PPPP"""'
And while I was at it I decided to try a different style too:
,ggadddd8888888bbbbaaa,_
,ad888, `Y88, `Y888baa,
,dP" "Y8b, `"Y8b, `"Y8888ba,
,88 "Y88b, `"Y8ba, `"Y88Ya,
,P88b, `"Y88b, `"Y8ba,_ ""8a,
,P'"Y88b, "Y88b, `"Y8ba,_ `Ya,
8' "Y88b, ""Y8ba, ""Y8ba,_ `8,
8b "Y88b, ""Y8ba,_ ""Y88baaY
88b, "Y88ba, ""Y88ba,_ `""P
8Y88ba, ""Y88ba,_ ""Y88ba,,_ ,P'
`b,"Y88ba, ""Y88baa,_ """Y888bd"
`b, `"Y88ba,_ ""Y888baa,_ ,8"
`8, `""Y88ba,_ `"""Y8888baaaaaP"
`Ya, `""Y888ba,_ `"d88P" Normand
`"Yb,,_ `""Y888baa,__,,adP""' Veilleux
`"""YYYY8888888PPPP"""'
The pictures I post are at their best when printed with a
'Line Printer 16.67 cpi' font or equivalent.
