647 – James Bond Gun Barrel Movie Intro – Seamless Texture
Image by Patrick Hoesly
Yep, you got the James Bond theme song running through your head. Now just get some silhouette women jumping round in the foreground and you got yourself a full fledged James Bond movie intro. Which movie do you like the best? Mine is ‘A view to a Kill’ with Rodger Moore…. the real James Bond to me.
TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA
"All of the official EON Bond films feature the unique gun barrel sequence, created by graphic artist Maurice Binder.[122] As Bond walks across the screen, he is viewed by the audience through the barrel of a gun trained on him by an unknown assailant. Bond wheels around and shoots directly at the gun/viewer, followed by the assassin’s blood spilling down the barrel/screen. This is accompanied by the opening bars of the "James Bond Theme", composed by Monty Norman, orchestrated by trumpeter and composer John Barry and Burt Rhodes."
My twist is the horizontal lines (like looking through the mini-blinds. I like it so I decided to run with it.

What is a Seamless Texture / Pattern?
A seamless texture is an special image, where one side of a image exactly matches the opposite side, so that the edges blend into each other when repeated. Seamless textures are used for desktop wallpaper, webpage backgrounds, video games, Photoshop fills and in 3D rendering programs.
How did you make it?
This texture was made using software specially designed to aid in seamless texture creation. Some of the programs I’ve use are Photoshop, Illustrator, Filter Forge, Genetica, Image Synth, Alien Skin, Topaz Labs, Imagelys, and a Wacom tablet.
