That's very instructive.

My 2 cents... I use binder clips to fix my papers on my board.

Binder clips are good and I use them as well, same kind. For this type of drawing the the paper that we will be working on and the copy must not move. They are to stay side by side or one above the other until the drawing is finished. So, I recommend ordinary paper tape.

Brush

A small (#2) cheap synthetic brush will do the trick.

Michele, I too am looking forward to see how this progresses. For me it is not just about giving instructions, the same must be clear and easy to follow. So, I hope to see image posts, from the forum, so we do not go of track.


If anyone is thinking of using tracing paper to check their progress DON'T. This will be defeating the purpose and one will lose more that gain. There is more to learn here then getting the lines right. Just taking three points of measurement is a lesson and a good habit to get into. Why? Later when you work on a live person this tree point practice will come in handy. You have no idea how much.
If you have everything setup do post a image of the setup. This will help you and me to get of to a good start. This will be difficult as it is, so lets check the setup.

All the best
