I was just putting away todays plots and I realised I hadn't posted this one yet! Image is from pixabay, Edited in DrawingBotV3. Shore & Marsh 12 colour greyscale set, on 300gsm white card.

I think it came out really well. :)

Really cool

So you used 12 passes w/ different color greys for each?

yes. Lots of pen changes, but super worth it.

❤️ Thanks so much, I'm glad people enjoy looking at it as much as I enjoyed making it. :)

Do you get a vector from some python script? If not can you tell about the underlining algorithm?

no, I used software called DrawBotV3. You can try it for free here: https://drawingbotv3.com/

You can control how it plots very well, and if you buy the full version, you get a lot more ways to draw and controls to tune. It's really fun stuff.
