Scale Drawing


Script for Scale drawing

1 thing I found easy was.... Drawing the scale lines and grid for the original picture.
1 thing I found hard was.... Drawing the enlarged picture to scale
I like.... The colours that I chose for my comic life and picture.
Next time I would.... choose a picture that is not a circle because it was hard to get the circle perfect.
