We did scratchboard in high school. How to get the image down without “drawing” it on the paper, is to draw it on tracing paper, then lay the tracing paper on the scratchboard and go over it with a ballpoint pen. It will leave a faint indent that you can use as a guide.

[@aurumisgreat]

something to keep in mind while using scratchboarding, try to keep your hand off the boar with paper or cloth because the oils in your hand can get on it and make it hard/impossible to scratch in certain areas. for the sketch, i make a lineart on a separate piece of paper then use graphite on the back of it to transfer the drawing. i use color pencil to transfer it because its softer and wouldn't scratch the board. i dont scratch the lineart, i just shade the highlights and use the lineart as a guide.

[@teejayaway]

Scratch art is so fun. The kids at my work and I love to do them together. You can actually get paper that's rainbow underneath when you scratch it off. It's also possible to make your own scratch art paper with just colored pencils, poster board, and paint. It's a fun project. I would definitely suggest trying your own and seeing what unique patterns you could make.

[@itslion3593]

Jazza this is great! Scratch board was my favorite art canvas in highschool and the best way to do a sketch is to do it on a normal peice of paper, then tape that on top of the board and trace its basic outline with a ball point pen so you have a mild outline, also if you do a print off reference do it in black and white much easier to get shading right, hope this helps but you did great on your own!

[@piress9229]

I feel like this video perfectly exemplifies Jazza, and art as a whole. When finding something new, you learn it your own way, be it by yourself, help from others, or anywhere in between. Using the knowledge, you test your abilities and see your strengths and weaknesses. Using those to create something new and better than before, pushing through that self-doubt that every artist faces with every piece.

When I was younger, my art teacher showed us a technique where you lay colorful oil pastels on a page (colored pencils or other coloring media would prolly work too) and then you lay a heavy coat of black pastel on top. Once you black out the page, you use a toothpic or some other tool (can even be an automatic pencil with the graphite taken out) and use it to scratch out the drawing, leaving you with colorful lines. It's a bit messy but really fun and gives you cool results.
