Not much going on, just creating the basic structure.


Adding a little and making it more symmetric.


Connected the bars.

Building out from there and making some of the lines stand out better.


Clean it up some and give it a more three dimensional feel.


Expanding it, making the core more symmetrical and giving it a more three dimensional look to it.


That's about it for now. Still very basic, so going to have to see where it goes from here.

Quite a bit of change here. First was changing the black triangles into squares. Connected them to the inner white squares with a big black bar. Then stenciled a wacky white pattern of lines on those black squares. After that I connected parts of the stencil with the other squares via thick black bars.

Made the corners more interesting by changing them into a collection of odd shapes. Cleaned up the stenciling in the black squares a little. Did away with the second connecting bars from the edge.

Making outer middle part more interesting. Wasn't exactly sure how I was going to go about that and I have several versions on the computer. I may use another version later but I like the way this looks.

Getting rid of the middle area as well as creating some guidelines, setting up the next alteration.

Made the middles solid black and some extruding, connecting squares behind the black cone.

By making two of the outer triangles white, and mirroring them and putting them on top to form a square, I got a very interesting look. I as well kept the original connectors and added more dimensions to it by having the outer line go behind it and show it in the middle. Also the black squares now look as if they have sides which show a three dimensional rectangle.

On the whole though the new white squares, while not connected, are even enough to suggest a square behind the object as a whole. While the white squares are smaller than the inner black square core by themselves, when looked at together they form a bigger square, mirroring and expanding upon the one in the core. Causing it to flow better and look even more interesting.

It's almost been a month since I uploaded doodles. I had made one or two every week but just left it in the folder, waiting to get something to end with until I uploaded more.. Took me a month to get to that point. So, that's about it for now. I have no idea how many more alterations will be needed for a final doodle, but I think it's coming along quite nicely.

Added an outer shape as well as gave a grayish color to the inner V, or outer shape of the X, depending on how you want to look at it. I haven't done that in quite a while and it is really simple. Just a weave of black and white, checkerboard type patter which results in that gray color. I definitely need to use that more often.

Changed the outer shape a bit by reducing the white lines at the points of the X, making it black and giving a more cohesive black surrounding/background of the X.

A part of the previous images, specifically the wacky pattern I created a while ago, mirrored. An idea I got as I looked at the inner square of the previous images and wondered what it would look like if each of the four corners were brought together, and so.. I used them in the next alteration.

The funny thing about this is that if I look at the center, I can see a circle starting to form within the middle of the overall shape of the square. Even though the lines connecting each square is straight. Not sure if I did that on purpose or it happened by chance, but that wacky pattern when put together makes for that appearance of a circle even though nothing else was done to create that effect.

Here those squares are superimposed with some modifications to make it look more interesting. As you may have noticed, the black squares at the points of the X are now white, so as to give better definition to the newly added corners.

Still a work in progress and I intend to better integrate the newly added squares with the other parts in future alterations. Perhaps even expand the doodle even more by connecting the squares directly. Though that's for a future alteration to see how that plays out.

Again, it seems to be coming along quite nicely. If anyone has any suggestions or comments, feel free to give them. That's it for now, at least for a few more days anyway.

I lost this one... I'll have to play with it again. Then I'll have three doodles going at the same time. \:\)

Though I wonder if Wesley will "see his house" again. \:D

Added a diagonal square with white endings. Also connected thick black bars to create a square like shape with the corners cut off. Plus edited a few other minor things.

Defined the lines better, thickening them as well adding more connections to better integrate some parts it. As well to set it up for the next alteration, where I shall copy parts of it and paste it.

A cross section of it was copied and pasted on the ends, as well erasing some of the stuff to give it a more odd overall shape as well other minor edits to better integrate the newly pasted sections.

Cleaned up the previous top/middle connections a bit, making it look more three dimensional as well as giving a better overall background pattern to the overall shape. The cross patterns looking almost as if spinning on an axis as I found quite interesting in the past.

Quite a few more things to be done, but I'll get to them sooner or later, depending on if I work on the other doodles first.

You are obviously seeing things which do not exist. I suggest you seek out medical advice. Joseph might prove useful in this regard. \:D

Cleaned up the corners connecting with the axis I mentioned previously. As well put some stripes in the previously black V's. Progressing from one black line to two, three. Etc... Something I haven't really done since I started doodling.

Colored quite a few shapes black to make the overall pattern more interesting.

Added some more bars to the outside creating triangles, plus continued on with the axis to make that look more interesting. Added some straight lines closer to the middle, removed some farther out, replaced that with a interesting pattern of white dots.
