ABSTRACT
The animated short "a flatpack project" was intended to emulate the aesthetics of traditional art techniques in a digital medium. This necessitated the creation of custom rendering and image processing code to reproduce the appearance of line drawings in both pencil and ink, along with other effects such as the bleeding of ink in water and the application of pastel to paper. This sketch describes some of the techniques used in achieving these ends.

Sketchy drawings
AFRIGRAPH '04: Proceedings of the 3rd international conference on Computer graphics, virtual reality, visualisation and interaction in AfricaIn non-photorealistic rendering sketchiness is essential to communicate visual ideas and can be used to illustrate drafts and concepts in, for instance, architecture and product design.

Real time loose and sketchy rendering in hardware
SCCG '04: Proceedings of the 20th Spring Conference on Computer GraphicsLines are usually drawn to mark the silhouette which distinct an object from another. From a simple stroke by the artist's hand, lines can be as expressive as though the drawn object is alive. Compared to the actual realistic rendering of the model, ...
Sketchy: Drawing Inspiration from the Crowd
CSCWIn-person user studies show that designers draw inspiration by looking at their peers' work while sketching. To recreate this behavior in a virtual environment, we developed Sketchy, a web-based drawing application where users sketch in virtual rooms and ...
