Method 4: Cut-outs
Another way to make a pattern,
instead of using punched holes, is
to carefully cut out the drawing. Cut
along its outer edges so that you
have a cardboard image in the form
of the object you want to draw.
This type of cut-out pattern can
also have punched holes to mark
lines inside the drawing.
Method 5: Tracing a color slide
projection
This is a good way to make
accurate enlargements of pictures
from color slides or transparencies.
Project the slide against a large
paper or a wall. Then trace the
picture exactly.
This method is especially useful
for Road to Health charts, thinness
charts (see page 25-10), etc. Slides
of both these charts are available
from TALC (see page Back-3).
KEEPING A
‘SCRAPBOOK’ OF
GOOD PICTURES
FOR COPYING
Good pictures for
making drawings
or posters can
be found in
magazines, books,
newspapers,
advertisements,
and so on. But often
when you want to
draw, it is hard to
find a good picture
to use as a model.
So it helps to
make a collection
of drawings and
photos you may
want to copy. For easy reference, you can organize them by subjects in a scrap-
book (notebook or album). It is also helpful to keep a list of books and the pages with
pictures you may want to copy.
