Freehand Designer Drawing Pad Set

How does it work?

The backing pad is made of microscopic pyramids. Each cm of consists of 400 pyramids. Your pen or pencil is guided by the pyramids through the drawing paper. Allowing you to draw horizontal or vertical lines easily. Due to the special shape of the pyramids you can use any pen or pencil you like, however for the best results, a high quality biro such as the Pilot BP-S fine or the Pental Superb is recommended. If using a pencil a 0.5mm H or 2H lead is recommended.

How do I use it?

• Put the grid underneath the first page of your sketchpad.
• Put pen to paper and start drawing with a moderate pressure.
• Always hold the pen in the direction in which you want to draw the lines and hold the pen in an upright position .
• For lines of different thickness, draw one line next to another. There is only 0.5mm between the pyramids so variable line thickness is easy to do.
• You can use paper up to 120gsm thickness.

As there is no contact with the pen or pencil the Freehand Designer has virtually an unlimited life span.

It should not be left in extreme temperatures i.e on radiators or in direct sunlight.
