This method was also used by painters who wanted to transfer a sketch they'd made onto a canvas, before there were projectors. I usually get too impatient for stuff like this, and just eyeball it. 9 times out of 10, I like the original sketch better.

Interesting. Funny John.

I'm going to have to see one of these.
