      Like this style a lot Dave... really looks hand-drawn. Very cool.

        Thanks Doug.

        Here's another example. I chose this one for the small arcs and circles to see how the style handles them.

        I'll have to write a short instruction sheet and package it up.

            That looks great. πŸ‘
            I'd like to know how you made it work so well with these tiny arcs?

              Thank you, gentlemen.

              Jan, there are two tricks to get the arcs and curves to display as I show them. First, the style needs to have the shortest line segments available. The other is to make sure all curves are welded. The arm rests on the Adirondack chairs and a number of separate curves. I made sure to weld them before applying the style. If the curves aren't welded, each short line segment gets treated independently of its neighbors. And if the segments are shorter than the shortest line in the style, it doesn't get displayed at all.

              When I create my sketchy styles now I make 10 lines of each of the 7 different lengths available so there's a lot of variability in the lines. 16 is the shortest available length but I would like to have the option for 8. I'd also like to have a couple of even longer lengths available as well as the ability to include more than 10 of each length.

                  Would love to know how you create a style like this / how much work it is.
                  I'm sure I'm not the only one that will appreciate your instruction.

                    It really isn't much work to get the images as I show them. I'll make up an instruction sheet and put the package together this evening.

                                You are without doubt the style MASTER dave!!

                                That said the marker pen style doesn't require the dirty background ie pencil rub!

                                  Thank you Richard. I agree with you. Fortunately that's not really part of the style. πŸ˜‰
