Slanty shifty fudge bar treat – LeMasney Consulting

Okay, so this is a situation where I wanted to play with some of Inkscape‘s built in filters, but in reality I only used one. I created a rectangle and simply used the selection tool’s skew handle to shift the top to the right parallel to the bottom. I converted it to a path and applied the filters/bevels/button filter to the shape. I created the tongue out of a simple square with a curved top, then duplicated, rotated and duplicated again to make the eye shapes. I gave a slight curve to the bottom of the eyes, and used the node tool to create a division in the tongue. I used a rectangle converted to path to create the mouth by blowing out the edges to rounds. I took that shape and applied an LPE curve. I added circles for pupils, and a gradient for the tongue. It seems so simple to look at it now, but lots of little tweaks were used for the effects.
