Step 10Enjoy it while it lasts.
The thunderstorm hit about an hour after this shot was taken.
Again, thanks for checkin' this out.
Post yours:)
Stayin' classy,

::EDIT:: So after re-reading my first instructable I realized I was very specific to the sphere shape. SO, if you're looking to try this anamorphic stuff out here's a more general observation I made:
Whatever part of the image you want to really POP, i.e. be 3D, THAT part of the image will be the most distorted or stretched out. The thing I said about the 4 parts of the baguette applies to most shapes/images. The lowest quarter will have little distortion while the top three extreme distortion. And again, whatever parts of your image you'd like to pop (even if it is in the lower most quarter of your image) those will have mucho distortion.
Thanks for all the love!

It would totally rock to draw a big brick wall in the middle of the road so that drivers would hit their brakes while the illusion lasts. ideally right by an intersection so anyone turning onto the road won't see it from a distance & know whats up.

haha, excellent. Would also be great in neighborhoods where people drive WAY to fast; but once they figure it out, it may not work as well. :)

I think they did that in Canada. They had an anamorphic drawing of a child crossing the street that was really realistic, it slowed down the traffic a lot. But there is an obvious downside, the drivers get used to "running" over little kids... I think the same could happen with the Brick walls.

My plans exactly ; ) . Actually somewhere I read some garage managers painted people in their garage in this style, so when drivers get to it, the pictures pop up, and it startles the driver enough to slow down, before continuing
