    In reply to Etch-A-Sketch Freestyle Seems Like Cheating
    Kinda stupid isn't it?
    I mean, the only value I can imagine for the original Etch a Sketch nowadays is for people who had it as kids (me, for instance) - nostalgic value - and for artists who can do unbelievable stuff with it considering how limited the knobs are - artistic value.

    Now, unless that Freestyle thing, besides being very ugly (for today's standards), is also dirty cheap, it's kinda pointless. #etchasketch

    If you think that's cheating, the challenging aspect of this one is drawing something solely consistent of perfect horizontal and vertical lines, making it the exact opposite of the original. #etchasketch

    @CustomFirmware: I'm guessing that it's cheaper to print an outline of something you see online (and probably better at complex designs) than buying some $99 piece of hardware and a bunch of sharpies. Or at the very least you'd feel like less of an idiot for buying something that could, y'know, print things like book reports, presentations, resumes, photos, etc... #scribblebot

    I cant see the video at work, but from what I can see, its definitely not useless.

    A printer can only print on paper. This could draw on any horizontal surface, to any scale you like.

    Perhaps not in the guise, but the tech would have many uses outside of simple drawings. It could be used to automatically paint the lines in a car park. Though I imagine such a solution already exists. #scribblebot

    This reminds me of that thing they used to sell (don't remember the name). You attach a pen or pencil to it, then trace an image with the other end (or something to that effect) and it would produce a duplicate 'drawing' on the pen/pencil end.

    The thing about drawing is that it's a series of incredibly fine, learned, and honed muscle movements paired with cognition. This thing could, I guess, teach you to draw... but it would only teach you to draw exactly like that, pen perpendicular to the page... very odd. #scribblebot

    @Gordonium: I didn't get anything from the actual video about it helping you learn to draw at all.

    It looks like just a fun easy kids toy.

    I imagine you'll be seeing it for real sooner rather then later. #scribblebot

    More mock-ups should be done like this. Renders are all well and good but there is no substitute for good old-fashioned physical models.


    Also, this is why we still need shop class.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Agreed. You just can't get all of the feel of the design just looking at a CGI rendering. In studio we did lots of models for vehicles and the sort that we had to craft ourselves. While I would've enjoyed doing 3D modeling, having your idea exist physically is far more satisfying.

    Wow... too much free time or what.


    Not to mention a kind of creepy attachment to a commercial product.


    Kind of one step before tattooing an Apple logo on your arm.


    Because.. you know... only Zune freaks do that...

    @TheWerewolf: Art projects are often very time consuming, and if an artist has lots of free time, what better way to spend that time than on more art projects.


    Art is hard, criticism is easy.
