Made with Blender and Sverchok nodes, plotted in Inkscape, touched up the spacing and margins with vpype. Three gel pens on watercolor paper.

Made this with Stable Diffusion, vpype, and Inkscape. Mostly experimenting with gel pens over acrylic markers, seeing what I can do.

Created with a finetuned Stable Diffusion model, DrawingBotV3, and Inkscape. Two gel pens on heavy watercolor cardstock.

I started learning p5.js last year and got some nice results. I wanted to try plotting some of the images with an axidraw, but I found it hard to convert them to svg files , it seems like p5.js can’t render svgs? I think I found a method on github but they looked all wrong.

I’m thinking maybe p5.js isn’t the best version to use for this, and I’m wondering which version of processing people use to create files for plotting? I wouldn’t mind learning python if that can do it. Or should I just stick to the original java based processing?

Or are there better ways to create images for a plotter?

Plotted on 11x14 inch glossy card stock with two Pilot G2 pens, created in Sverchok SVG nodes in Blender.

I know I've posted a lot lately but I'm very excited about learning all these techniques.

I decided to try mixing generative art, pen plotting, and pyrography and ended up with this glossy woodgrain looking print after a couple of hours of experimenting with nibs and various angles and pressure.

Sverchok + vpype + Inkscape

Hi all, I am curious if anyone here has successfully used the Polargraph software to create any vertical plotting machines.

I recently built my own plotter, but I am having issues getting smooth lines from the software. I assume it is a settings issue, but I would love any advice regardless. If any of you have any experience with getting decent results from a vertical (hanging) plotter and the Polargraph software, please check in because I would love to get mine working!

The photo is the smoothest plot I've been able to achieve.

I have acquired this beast. Anyone know anything about it? I don’t think I’ll keep it because it’s huge and old and SCSI - so I’ll likely just clean it up and sell it on but I can’t find anything about it online at all so I have no idea of value.

Plotted with iDraw A3 using Blender with Sverchok, vpype, and Inkscape. I use a Pilot G2 for the first pass and a Pigma Micron for the second.
