Usually I do ASCII pictures straight from `the imagination'. :) Once I tried tracing (see "der blaue Reiter" on my webpage) and when there is a request for an ASCIIfication of a certain motive I try to copy that freehand. Otherwise I draw just as I feel like. I do use Jave though. Mostly to draw a first freehand sketch for getting the proportions right. Then I do the finer bits with Emacs (since Sun's JDK does not work well with a German keyboard I cannot use Jave as a simple editor). Finally I switch back to Jave for moving the picture around a bit or drawing horizons and stuff like that. You may guess how this is done my looking into the "intermediate scribbles" links in my Gallery. For example for the pregnant woman that is at: http://www.ascii-art.de/ascii/my/pregnant_s.txt The final pic is at: http://www.ascii-art.de/ascii/my/big5.shtml :) Andreas -- ________________________________________________ http://www.ascii-art.de
