Is there anyway to turn this logo into a 3-d looking pattern. I am willing to pay for a good pattern.

You do not owe me anything. I just like to play. You should wait, however, someone else might come up with something better.

Dan and few others are masters with the Shadermap program. I have it but my results never look as good as theirs. So I use different methods.

An alternate method is to find a cow skull pattern and simply add the text to the front. Depending on size and purpose, a nice texture in the background really brings out the detail in the carving.

The pattern enclosed is of the cow skull alone with the down turned horns. I have shared the same pattern with the horns pointing up. You can find it in the pattern sharing section if you need it. There are some great patterns there that have been shared in the past but it can be a bit of fun (did I mean frustrating?!??) to find the exact one you are looking for sometimes. I have literally lost a few in the pile because I can't remember what I named them. Lol

You might consider getting the ptn made without the text, then you could place the text in any position on the plaque,
just a though, I always do that on my projects.

Hi CD; I tried making your pattern image, I found removing the background destroyed the Skull image. I think it would be better using two PTN Files to make the pattern. I don't post my PTN Files on the forum any more; they find there way on E-bay. If this will work for you - Send me a "PM" with your e-mail address; I can send you the pattern file.
