Not sure what all the terms are...but most of it made some sense. I downloaded PAINT.NET and have had a hard time understanding how to use it. I haven't figured out layers yet, but I understand how helpful they can be. I made a mess but ended up with this. If you squint really hard...you might be able to see it here. Fabricating parts for the back is easier than this!

That is a good start. maybe you can learn how to use the straight line tools and also the circle tools.

Excellent! I didn't know they existed, clearly I need them! look at the circles...the shading of the color gives a depth to look like spheres...any ideas? It took me at least 1/2 hour to figure out how to put a picture on the palette just to get started. Now to figure out layers and transparancy to put the original on top to make sure I'm not changing shapes or sizes too much.
