Use fireworks 8 to make a compass instance

(Figure 01)

First, set the canvas size to 128x128 pixels and the background to white.

Draw a 90x90 circle with an elliptical tool and align it horizontally and vertically to the canvas; (Figure 02)

　　

(Figure 02)

Change the fill category to a linear gradient, and increase and adjust the gradient color; (Figure 03)

　　

(Figure 03)

Draw a 70x70 circle above this circle, change the fill category to a linear gradient, add and adjust the gradient color, horizontally, vertically aligned to the canvas (or to the circle below it). (Figure 04)

　　

(Figure 04)

Then the pattern on the dial is depicted.

Using a star tool to draw a pentagram, change points to 4 points, got a four-star (can change its shape and size according to personal preferences), horizontally, vertically aligned to any of the following circles; draw a slightly smaller four star (or copy and paste) and rotate 45 degrees, horizontally and vertically, to any circle below; Figure 05-1)

Select two four Quadrangular stars, click the menu "Modify"-"combination Path"-"joint", get a four large angle four small angle of octagonal; (Figure 05-2)

And then draw a positive circle, the general size see (Figure 05-3), horizontal, vertical alignment.

Select this small circle and behind the octagonal, click the menu "Modify"-"combination Path"-"punch", get the graphics we need; (Figure 05-4)

　　

(Figure 05)

Sets the color of the graphic to white, opacity to 70, four weeks to four small rectangles, white, and opacity to 60. (Figure 06)

　　

(Figure 06)

Here's how to make a pointer:

Use the Star tool to draw a pentagram, change points to 3 points, get a triangle; adjust the height-to-width ratio with the zoom tool; (Figure 07-1)

Copy this triangle, select one, click the menu "Modify"-"deformation"-"vertical flip", adjust position; (Figure 07-2)

Select two Triangles, click the menu "Modify"-"group"; rotate the combined graphic; (Figure 07-3)

Modify the color of the two triangles. (Figure 07-4)

　　

(Figure 07)

In turn, change the fill category to a linear gradient and adjust the gradient color (figure 08-1), and then select the combined graphic to add the drop shadow filter (Figure 08-2).

　　

(Figure 08)

The production of the table mask:

Use the Ellipse tool to draw a 64x64 circle, the fill category is None, the nib color is white, the size is 2, the opacity is 30, and horizontal, vertical alignment; (Figure 09)

　　

(Figure 09)

Came to a very critical step, the high light production on the sheet.

Draw a 60x60 circle with an elliptical tool and align it horizontally and vertically. Then, move the x position of this circular circle up 1 pixels, as in the orange portion of the figure, and paint the red part of the picture with the pen tool (Figure 10-1)

Attention:

1, when depicting the red part, it is important to depict the middle curve;

2, the rest of the free description, but to ensure that the back of the orange part of the cover.

Select two separate graphics, click on the menu "modify"-"combination Path"-"punch", get the highlight of our needs of the graphic of the part; (Figure 10-2)

　　

(Figure 10)

Change the fill category to a linear gradient, adjusting the gradient color and opacity; (Figure 11)

　　

(Figure 11)

Has sniffed the image, haha, but always feel the chassis like a piece of iron, we let it look a little icing on the stereo.

Add strokes and textures to the chassis and a projection. (Figure 12)

　　

(Figure 12)

It's much more comfortable. (Figure 13)

　　

(Figure 13)

Again in the dial up a grid, hey, of course, we can also according to their own needs to add patterns.

In the texture list in the Properties panel group, select the cross Hatch line, which has a total texture of 20%. (Figure 14)

　　

(Figure 14)

It's done.

A little bit of decoration. (Figure 15)
