Draw your surface as smooth as you can right out of the gate (pen). The technique saves smoothing time and enables you to make lines as wide as you desire. Groundbreaking method of filling in any 3d pen project that requires a solid surface. Great information for artists, STEM teachers, art teachers, homeschooling parents, crafters, and all 3D pen enthusiasts.
