Hi there,

I was wondering if someone could help me with overlapping objects. I would like to know how to create the colourful art of this image:



Specifically is there anyway of doing this without having to duplicate and take the intersection of each of the objects two at a time?

I was hoping you could arrange some random objects and separate each area of overlap in one swoop...

Any ideas?

Figured out how to do it...

I'll post a how to in the not-too-distant...

Hello

I'm glad that you find the solution by yourself.

I see 2 ways of getting the effect taht you want:

1.- Changing the opacity of the shapes, and ovelaping them. After this, clip the surface (the "hair"in your illustration).

2.- The other is using filters

I haven't done nothing similar before

Greetings

Also maybe check out using the tweak-tool on objects, to randomize size, color, rotation. Super handy.
