Art is nothing but a process of thought and the capability to replicate it on paper is what makes you an artist. That's when the soft edge tool comes into play.Do you have a passion for art but hesitating to give it a try? Just because you do not have the tag of an “artist” or, you do not possess a certain art degree, do not say “NO” to yourself. The sharp edge 3D doodle is great for objects that need to be extended, but not so ideal for rounded effects. If you click and drag on the object itself without using those buttons, you're able to move it around the canvas in a conventional 2D manner.

The left and right squares can make a small object much longer or shorter, which is useful when making true 3D effects.

The top and bottom squares affect the size in that direction, letting you flatten the object. The four corners resize the object, making it larger or smaller depending on if you pull the box in or out. Hold and drag one of those to see how it affects the model. The eight small boxes surrounding the object are useful too. The others will rotate or spin the model in whichever direction you need. One will push it back and forth against the background canvas.

When the object is finished, it will remain only slightly 3D until you begin using the tools that automatically show up around the object when you click it. No matter how you do it, always end up back where you started-at the blue circle-to complete the drawing. Combine both techniques into one as you're drawing the model. Click and drag for freehand, or click once and then move to a different location and click again to make a straight line. As you draw, your starting point illuminates with a small blue circle. Select the sharp edge tool and then pick a color for the object.ĭraw a simple circle to start.
