Hello everybody,
I am an engineering student at NIEC in India .I love drawing
and coding and so I wanted to make a
tool/plugin for Inkscape. Here is the discription of the tool :
1.The basic idea of the tool is keep your drawing up to date in
symmetry .
2.This tool will help artists make symmetrical drawings ,like they are
drawing in front of a mirror/axis
3.The user can have 1 or more than 1 mirror/axis (limit to be
defined) for the sketch to be duplicated on.
4.The artist will be able to draw symmetric facial images,snowflakes,
kaleidoscopic patterns,characters or objects.
5.It will make existing drawings and illustrations reusable.
6.The user can describe one of the following things like the origin
point where the mirror is to kept, its angle and number
of mirrors/axis to be used
I came up with this idea when i was drawing snowflakes for a weather
app (that i discarded) and i found out
that it was quite time consuming to drawing good quality snowflakes QUICKLY.
Finally i would like to ask whether this idea is good for GSOC 2014
participation?I am really eager to participate this
time.
This would be a very useful feature, but I think we will need a little
more information on how you want to implement it. You also should
submit a mockup of the proposed interface.
