The picture looks great! I didn’t know that drawing bot, it looks really promising.

Thanks! I’d been searching for photo to line drawing converters but this one did it all for a small investment.

Intriguing.

Looks like a lot of work has gone into that program.

Thanks for sharing.

That’s the pen style I was talking about at rmrrf, and mrrf!

Very nice! I may want to try it one day.

I haven’t even scratched the surface of all the different settings yet, it’s worth the license fee for sure.

Yeah? Have you played with it at all?

Hi! I have a question for you: when you plot, does the order of the colors matter? For example, do you use the black first or last? Thank you! I’m intrigued by your picture and I just ordered the DrawingBot software.

Just for cleanliness’ sake, I do what they told me in 7th grade art class, light colors first.
Then we don’t get the yellow pen all gunked up and so on. So I do YMCK order

Thanks! That makes perfect sense!

No, but we generally have one of the machines drawing itself at the conventions. I was saying would be cool to do a “tool change” to get other colors.
