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?

[โ€“] CrimeDad@lemmy.crimedad.work 3 points 2 months ago

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?

But can you draw me 7 perpendicular red lines?

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

[โ€“] Fermion@feddit.nl 2 points 2 months ago

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

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

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.

Then thats where you draw the line!

I don't like sand.

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

Everything else

At vague questions.

[โ€“] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Just over there.

Where do you draw the circle?

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

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

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

Depends where I get cocaine.

[โ€“] squid_slime@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Where ever the pen decides

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

Before the cross and the curve, of course.
