3d Dragon illusion
I sent these links to Bill Amend of FoxTrot fame (who is a really nice guy btw):
http://www.grand-illusions.com/dragon.htm
He’s made one and I’ve made one too. I’ll post some video sometime soon to show you how mine works.
Here’s the example from the main site:

And here’s what Bill had to say…
>Works great.
>My engineer brother-in-law had the same idea as you and says he’s going to
>print one out on his office’s giant color plotter and make a huge one.

>> I’m gonna redo it on an A3 page (11.7×16.5″) and see how it turns out…
>> A 1ft tall dragon should be MUCH more impressive…
