Where did this image come from?
I saw this several months ago and wondered if anyone knew where the image or vectors came from that this guy used? Possibly from a dover book or?
I didn't think optical illusions necessarily translated very well to wood but this guy seems to have pulled it off well.

Jack,
Looks like he did a pretty good job but what would sell it is if the perspective lines went to the corners of the material and then v carved just to the edge and not off the edge.
A friend of mine that i helped with his cnc build a few years ago plays with it.
I'll see if he's got time to send me some pics.
Regards

that project was done by Mike Woycke. I messaged him several months ago inquiring about where the image came from but did not get a response. Possibly the message is floating in space on it's way to mars, stuff like that get's lost all the time. If anyone knows him point him to this...

No idea where it came from, but it puts me in the mind of Starbucks.

I know i have (somewhere) that sphere you speak of, that when you look at it it looks like a bulge is popping up from the surface along with a couple others. I just saw this one and had a thought to try to carve it. But like many things, you see, you intend to cut it but never do.
I have a "temporary projects folder", things i see that i want to make and give them a priority. The problem is that folder is getting bigger and bigger and nothing is getting made.

Now I just need to know how you searched the image.
I had an app that Google was working on where you could take a picture of something, then Google that picture, and it'd tell you about it.
Mainly if it was a landmark or restaurant or so forth. It didn't work worth a damn. It did work, to some extent, on faces, for whatever reason.
Is there a chrome app or something now?
Ahh, found it. Google images. I'm glad I saw this, it's gonna be a big help!!!
