On some paper usually. I prefer that yellow/green engineering paper. Having a nice straightedge is important, too.

Why do you discriminate against blue engineering paper?

When I say engineering paper, this kind is what I mean. I've only ever seen it in white or shades of green and yellow. Where do you get it in blue?

I drew the line on a Huion tablet for years, and now it's like my brain is expecting the disconnect between my hand moving and the image appearing on my monitor, because drawing the line on paper feels so unnatural now.

Don't lose that skill!! Don't be like me

These days that's true for me as well, but I do miss the old blackboards and chalk.

But can you draw me 7 perpendicular red lines?

That video feels more and more real the older I get.

In Krita, 'cause Photoshop is shit.

I feel like this question is too vague to be answered with any substance. Where do I draw the line in what context? Technology? Dating? Politics? Family? Social media? Food? Etc.

I draw the line at answering unanswerable questions.

I don't like sand.

But who or what's standing on the other side?

Where do you draw the circle?

Just over there.

[โ€“] miracleorange@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

Before the cross and the curve, of course.

Where ever the pen decides

[โ€“] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Depends where I get cocaine.

[โ€“] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

I should draw the line sooner than I do but I'm kind of desperate.
