How To Use Grid Builder to create beautiful Lettering Layouts in Procreate

well today we're looking at how to use a grid builder and how to use it really really well so I've prepared a presentation and I just need to get ready to where we're using it so let's see I have a mouse but somehow it is not appearing on my screen there we go now I got it okay so what I'm doing here okay so today we're looking at how to use grid builder and how you can use it in your designs and I'm really excited to show you that so I'm excited to go through a couple of topics and these are the talking points that I've selected so grids explained how like why did we create them what's inside like what are you getting when you're buying them and then finally how to build a great composition by using our grids so these are pretty much the topics that we're talking about so and I'm gonna be using especially two methods showing you guys two methods of how I use them and how you can use them in your design your elements so of course if you're real watching this video you're gonna probably not want to watch through all the stream so what we've gonna do or what we're about to do at the end of the stream is that we're gonna write out the timestamps and put them into the description so if you're just watching it right now you'll find all the time since its timestamps in the description and of course the links for the video or for the tools itself in the descriptions so let's get started with the grid explained so what are what are the grids and how like why have we actually created them so it really all started with a simple problem that I've had and coming up with new composition and I've I'm teaching a course a workshop on a composition master class and in that composition master class I'm explaining like one way of coming up like a whole process the four-step process of creating a composition so it goes through thumbnailing then sketching finally adding some like the final finalizing the sketch and also just the the finalization of the piece right so those are the four steps that I go through every single composition to make them and create them and in the thumbnailing part that's where we actually use grits so I kind of break down a composition always in shapes and use that to help myself draw some letters inside one tool that I've created for myself is actually to to simplify that so for example rainy days when I do not know how to to or what to create and I have pre compose routes that's where I started off with products is creating pre compose grids and so let's have a look I need to switch the cameras and turn this here off put this back and then turn this on here so you guys can see so here in these I have for example a like a grid composition grids here for example and so I can just tap on here and you'll see there's a finished grid and so that's just where you have to fill out those words for example I can like now go in here get another brush like my sketch brush and then write something in depending on the word for example nothing I have no idea what I'm writing in here but you see these lines help me to kind of figure out where I want to write something nothing seems kind of like this maybe I'll I had to change that around but you see it's pretty easy to suddenly create a awesome composition if you have boxes already ready for you just to fill out and you use kind of like the outlines to set nothing seems possible over here so pops will kind of like that of course that's you could have done that better but imagine we're putting in a banner inside here that could work until it's done until [Music] something like this who knows like that and then if I hide the grid for example here now I can add in the the banner that would kind of like make this whole thing pop and you see this is how I started off like creating these already pre-compose grids precomposed and pieces and out of that came then the idea of you know what let's create individual grid so you guys can start creating them yourself so if I go into the other piece we'll see at the grid so we created these boxes that you can individually find and we got 35 different ones that you can use so here this one is kind of like this slanted up so here I have those the rise here and so here is really what you get so it's a box that has different shapes it has top and bottom anchor points center anchor point so you can kind of like structure that so this line right here will help you to actually find the center of the piece to kind of like put them into place and then you have all these boxes like limited so you can also see that you have a straight line let's see if I get a straight line here so if I wanted to write something out getting a black color like for example want to write out a the letter B I can just do that I can draw the letter C and I always know exactly that it's vertically straight and even spaced correctly so these are also really great to have a great space so if I know that the the word starts with a C and kind of like an R here and I can just help myself with these lines then we have the x height or the crossbar here at the center of the grid and then finally the bottom line and the top line who are actually just a way to help you see where the letter should start and where it should end so I've seen a lot of people kind of like use this just as a guideline and then writing it out like this but like really use the space completely like go from top use this space here to draw straight lines and to fill it out to create those beautiful letters and use also just these guidelines like here the crossbar you can change that you can customize that and I'm going to show you how you can customize this grid at the end of the video as well so this is what we've made we made these pieces so you guys can create - to help yourself draw a composition easier to create your own composition again kind of like we looked at just before these tools here that you can create your own sets of pieces of thumbnails that you can create and then use in your composition so we've used them in a lot of our pieces and they're basically two method that we use but before we gonna jump in that I'm just going to wait till my camera goes back on we are going to look at what's inside so what is inside what are you getting when you're buying the grid builder so one of the things that you will get when you buy the grid builder is you will get a download link that will allow you to download so this is the easiest way to download it is through Safari and then a lot of people get confused because when Safari downloads it you'll get a link and then it will just jump up here so if I go to Safari let's see here so if I have the download link it will just download something here and a download bar would appear up here in this download link you'll find that under stefan Koontz com slash support you'll find exactly explain how that works that will save it to files and what you'll get here is if you go to downloads you'll get a zip file that will appear like this and then you can just tap on that it will create a folder that's a builder bundle or the grid builder and you'll find here all these different folders that are useful for you so you don't only get procreate and procreate files but you also get Adobe Illustrator Photoshop Adobe Sketch affinity designer other sketch but pro you even get a fonts where you can use it and type it in and you get the individual files for example P and G's PDFs and all that which you can drag and drop an even keynote or PowerPoint like all these different applications that you can also use them so it's really useful even not just procreate we've designed it especially with procreate in mind because we use it all the time you get also here a explanation of how to use it so you see method one is explained right here and then method two and is where you go from scratch I'm gonna explain just the other way around but that's basically that then you see also the installation guide explained here this one is a little bit more complicated than it actually is now thanks to files and here you get 35 brushes so we got all these arc large arc small brushes banner block bowtie bridge bridge left bridge right circle coffin you see all these names that are not necessarily interesting but you see now it's the question is how do you import so many different brushes in one go so what I will do is actually I will open procreate on the side then I will tap select select all and then hold on drag it up and you'll see all these files will combine you see that number over here that says 35 you drag it in and boom it will do import and now this is also a part that is a little bit confusing it says imported but you do not see where it is so what you can do is then you go and you open the brush panel and you automatically see all the new brushes that has been imported right into your imported brush folder now if in case you want to get a separate folder the trick is actually to rename this folder here to just add a one at the end it will change that and then just do that again drag it in do the import it will create a new import folder so you can do that even with other brushes but we'll create a new import folder in here you got all these 35 grit builder brushes that you can now rename into the grid builder and you got a separate folder with all your brushes in here and since I've already have that I can just delete because I already have them inside here up here somewhere and where do I have them I know I have them here grid builder there we go so this is the easiest way to actually download it to find it and that's how you can do that very easily so this is what you get you get 35 individual brushes from the flow flowing ribbon flag Dipper diamond all these different shapes that will be available to you to use in your composition of course you can kind of tweak them around and use them and that will lead us into the next point which is well the download install that I already explained but how do I use it in a composition so how to build a composition using grid builder so there are two methods like I explained and Method number one is the tetris methods so let me just show you that here this is building it up from scratch and which is called the tetris method so method number one building it up from scratch and let's have a look at how that works so I have an example here from scratch where you actually take one shape and you start using that one shape and then you start adding another shape that like fits right into this one so here I've already prepared a couple of them and so I kind of like use another shape and then try to again with the center anchor points make sure that these are all aligned and on the center here another way you can do that is just by adding a centerline drawing that in so here I'll draw a center line maybe not as thick reduce that a little bit tiny a little bit there make it straight and then here can just align that and so that will help me to see if this is all on the right line so here we have a little arc so it's a little different shape than the one before so again what are we trying to do we're trying to play Tetris so we're trying to find a shape that will fit as close as possible using the space here really nicely I could if I invert that that one over here so kind of like the same shape but kind of use this you'll see this wouldn't be a great way to play Tetris because you have all that space inside here that is just too big so you want to use that space well so I'm gonna delete this and so one shape that really fits in well is this one here for example so that's a what did we call that grid here it's just so you guys have a name reference the coughing so that's a coffin then I add the next one which is kind of like a arc at the bottom and then finally on top here another similar like this one here at the top another layer that I can see and added at the top so finally that asked us the question okay why can I actually start writing inside so I took the liberty of playing around with words and just trying to fit anything that would work in here really well so I have learned nothing from binging Netflix and you can see even here I kind of played around like I split split that one up into two parts so these lines again these vertical lines help me to figure out the right inclination of every letter even the spacing helps me to just make sure that the letters are pretty much space in the correct way kind of like I did as well here and here the middle line helps me just to make sure that I get the x height of all the letters of course you're free to move around again to go out especially when you're using cursive letters but basically what it really helps you to do is to really to create a composition that is a little bit more interesting than just to make them float on top of each other keep them Square and just like adding some touches for example here in this one here the nothing would have been really cool to have the Netflix in here because I can just change it around but I can again let's see I can create another piece of leather in here and I'll go with the paintbrush and I'll ride for example and composition and see I don't know how many letters composition has but I feel like it has a lot so I'm gonna write it really tight and as you can see I was almost right here so I'm just gonna squeeze that back in but as we are still drawing in a draft version this is where I'm just using the draft and to do that composition now composition actually you know what I'm starting off with the wrong word mastering composition it's a master ring there we go calm oh let's see Shen same problem as before as you can see here I can either squish it together or I can just move it a little tiny little bit more to the center that's totally fine mastering composition and then you see I have like since this would be the biggest word kind of want that to be the most important word so this is where you can change it as well like you can just say like is or you can add like you can move those around saying I want to change the order for example this here this in this I'll move these down and like I'll add like a smaller word in here like is so I know that later on I can add like another box is is easier then you something like that so mastering composition is easier than you think and let's see how that looks alone oh now I wrote that into the wrong layer this one here but you see this is how you start a composition you place around so let's see if I can just go ahead and play around so I what I do is really again just playing Tetris I for example start with the rise the rise is actually not the best way to start but we're not shy of a challenge so I'm asking myself like what fits really well on this side so I go back in my brushes and I look at all these elements I see here there's a bridge to the left let's see if I can find something else for example a wedge to the right so here actually what I like to do is to put those into new layers so when I click that on I can turn them around scale them back and forth sometimes when you start out so for example I want to use that space really well over here and I want to kind of like use the same element here but spin around put that line that to the end kind of like the other one just to the side just like this and so I start adding all these elements and try to come up with them so here as well you can change the size of the individual grit so for example if you start out and you click that and you see like it's overlapping on your on your grid size then you just reduce the shape the size of the shape and you can even make it really small really big however you want and so you see now I can start adding all these different elements and you can also start with a quote for example if you know let's see one of the quotes that I want to write out is for example let's write it out just in a short sentence here coffee is really I need so coffee is really all I need so I see like I have one box that is long one box is short another box that is relatively long shorter one very short and quite okay so I can start off with the very first grid again so let's go in here to the grids bubblebum I'm always losing where I've put the grid builder here we go so let me start off with a small arc in a brand new layer so like this so coffee and then small word so let's box that in into a let's say diamond shape or even this one the pill the pill works perfectly so again new layer here and you can see it's already perfect it's in the middle so I'm just gonna Center that on here and then just place it maybe I'll have to do that bigger but now really all I need so really again using the space as best as I can I'm gonna go with either a bowtie for example so like this that's perfect and not too big and now I can just fit that in just like that really all I need so all I can maybe let's see I can either use another pill so kind of like go with this one here duplicating that so that's also very nice and I can place like all I in that as well and then knead will actually duplicate the same as coffee place that down and so here you can't play again it's the tetris method so you're playing tetris by using up all the space as best as you can and then finally you try it out by simply filling it out using a sketch brush or any brush you like and then just making sure okay so coffee has six letters so I'm just gonna use the space as best as I can so right now I'm just want to make sure that the style I want to use is okay so here we go and then finally here is is really so here I could even think of you know what about writing this out here really so this is the problem here is that's when you do that when you start playing around with other shape but that's more of a composition issue is that you have like these letters so that kind of prompts me to play around and get a little bit more flexible with the the composition place that in the middle here and then I'll know that kind of like alright it's here in the between I can write down all I and then finally get in here use this and then place that and so that's kind of like just to help me see did I get it correct and let's get just that so I kind of like this see if I can do the other version which is but I could also again go back getting this in here I'll duplicate that just to show what I mean which is here I'll starting by riding really Oh oh there we go so oh I need so that's also way and then I can start thinking about like the shapes of the letters like do I want to make it round do I want to change kind of the size of the letters but again for the composition wise and now it also helped me to to get those shapes and rights and kinda like fill it out so this is kind of like the start where you start from scratch from scratch and how you can do that very easily so let's look at the next method which is the method number two and which is more of finalising so here we go method number two how to finalize a piece using the grid builder and kind of like the perfection method so you're using the the grids to perfect your composition so in this case I have actually taken the liberty of taking it a sketch of mine and so here we go we already have like I've created a composition I know kind of like how I wanted to be done and in this case I've already finished this piece and I want to show you how I've actually created this so let's see um let's open this up here go to the album and you can see what I've done is I've prayed this piece here I've kind of like taking the opacity in the background and created a grid on top of that and you see like my letters are not all straight so I had to address that I had to to change kind of like the spacing as well and even change kind of the orientation of all these different pieces so in the next one I started to like write it out kind of like just sketching out the in lines just making sure that the spacing is correct that the letter shapes are correct and as soon as I had that done I finalized the piece by actually writing it out giving the letters weights structure and shape and so that's kind of where it finalized and then finally the piece that we have over here which is could be any one of those but you see that's where the structure like the shapes of those arcs appear the lines here are straight and consistent which is why this is such a great tool to finalize your lettering as well and and so that helped me to gain like consistency over all the letters and just to create a great structure so this is the next method that we looked at so here we would start at actually reducing the layer like the layer opacity adding a new layer and then starting to find the right grids for these shapes so here we go I've used the arc I'm just using a different color so now this looks a little bit big so I'm will reduce the the shape and so I see like this part of the lower arc is pretty much the better version of it so I'm gonna place this somewhere there and kind of in the center and then I can erase some of these parts so this is where you start tweaking around your grids making sure that they're the best version that they fit in really nicely and so on and so on and then you get all these right shapes that you need like for example now the block and I'm just going to make sure that the page orientation is correct so here you can see I'll place in the block I'll zoom in and again make sure that it's straight centered again centering all your pieces if you have a centered composition this is a great tool to place that in and so on and then you just go in you fill it out kind of like I just showed you before so this version here where you create the whole composition place all the grids in the right place and so you can move on to the next part which is then start sketching it out making sure that it's all correctly placed and if you need to make some adjustments then yes and again just making sure that everything stays in line like the space between the letters you need to make them between the boxes and then you can really go with the line of the letter really to the end making sure that it's straight that's your O's or your circles are just going over a tiny little bit to make it easy to make it useful so this is the second method which is the finalizing method now finally one of the things that you can do is customizing your grits so their little tuning that you can do and I love to look at that in a way of how you would chew in a car or like anything like you want to make it perfect for yourself so I already showed you a tiny little bit by just erasing some parts using the top the bottom parts but what you can also do and it might seem obvious of course but for example if you're drawing a script letter I usually like to draw a script letter by actually giving it a tiny little slant so I can use the transform tool so if you go to free transform or freeform you can just select the top layer and then just move it around slant it in the perfect position that you wanted to so here you go I like this and then you can also change the axis of the x height so that means this line here one of the ways that I like to transform that is to actually just select here and I'll go up here try to just select this tiny little element here and then move it up for example if I want to have like a super high condensed letter I'll move it up and then I can start sketching in a word which is kind of like what I did before so I'll go back to the paintbrush I kind of like this brush right now to to sketch out so here like an a going up here into a R and then you see you can always try to get like these same same bows and arrows and kind of like get this nice consistent flow of letters like I haven't written anything but let's write something inside here for example this is this is great so of course we do not have a descender we have a little bit of an ascender but not a descender and so one thing that I also like to do sometimes is actually like I know that my EE should fit in nicely in here so I'll draw it out and then make sure that it fits the a kind of like similar like too to draw that out here and then I can just use these place them again together and then get the spacing right afterwards without actually having to worry too much about making sure that the spacing works but get the spacing the the width of the letters consistent so this is great and then on top here I can start to add like a nice flourish or just ligature there and and just play around and with the thickness so that's kind of like the next step that I will do is kind of like play with the thickness and make sure that I get that consistent as well in a quarry in a consistent way so just keep playing around until you're satisfied and you feel like oh this is nice maybe you'll have to move things together again and move them like apart and just playing around with it that's kind of like the whole game but that goes into lettering and that is nothing that has to do with the grid builder but this is kind of like how you can tweak the grid builder move those pieces around play around with them as much as you need to just to get the nice letters inside alright so these are the three things again you can start from scratch by playing the tetris method that we played in here so coffee is really nice where you just try to find the right pieces that will fit in here and there a lot of different options and you can play play around and then you can create all these different elements and pieces the more you play around with the more options you will have at the end of the time and you'll learn a lot from that so up next is a round of questions where you guys get to ask all your questions which I now can go over in the Q&A section so ask your questions in the comment or in the live chat if you want to and I love nothing more than to help you out figure out go into details in depth of what you need to know so I'm gonna let you guys ask those questions and hopefully we can answer all of them or perhaps I've actually already answered them all which I hope that I have and let's see if this is going on so let's go into the question section if you have any questions let me know I would love nothing more than to help you out with these and for the meantime I'm just going to jump back to this section here and keep on drawing on this one because the coffee is really coffees really all I need it's not true but all I need is a little coffee I'm finding a rap really good so let's see what you guys are writing in the comments so good so Jonathan Jenkins is asking will you come up with more banner options and the answer is absolutely we're working on it it's something that we've been working on for a while now but we'll definitely work on something on this side how you how Alan Alaric Alan Vera I'm not sure I can read your questions right hopefully you can kinda like rephrase that and I can help you with that why don't you do those colorful paintbrush pieces anymore the ones you we are early on your Instagram so if you are referring to these colorful pieces I like to switch it up all the time so let's see if I can jump back to an early piece that I've done they're actually not that difficult to make but they're fun to do they look usually pretty cool and amazing I'm just having a hard time to find them but kind of like something like this over here is what's they're referring to probably this one this one is probably my most famous one for but let's see if you have that how would you use the letter builder with the grid builder to make it fit well great question all right Janet and so let's jump over into the file that I've been using over here and using the letter builder inside the grid builder so there are different options let's jump over here so if you have for example a grids like this one the arc and then you add like the letter builder so let's put that into a different color choose here letter builder now it just got to reduce the size so that's well spread it out a little bit so there are different ways to fit it in really well so one way is to actually I need to move that out is to get it inside here let's see if I can just place it in here just because I've added too many letters kind of like that and then you can use the warp function the work function is a little bit difficult to use because it's just annoying to kind of place around but it works actually really really well so you're trying to again use the straight lines that you have and then placing it around and see all right I need you to move all of these and so it takes a lot of going back and forth making sure that everything is almost perfect that it works really well kind of like that right and so you play around until you're satisfied but it is absolutely doable it takes a little bit of patience but you can see already I'm feeling very confident with how this looks and already you feel like I could start like the final adjustments like those tiny little adjustments can be done afterwards so now if I want to write in a word again going with the UM the paintbrush here so I could write so how many lives do I have one two three four five six seven seven letters um what this question has one two three four five six oh one two month mini and I do not know but here you can see I'm just going to start writing out brave into the arc here and you can see like the cool thing about that is now you can start writing of course you could have done that for the entire grid but that's a beautiful thing is that you can just plant that in here but using the was it called the warp tool that's how you can really implement that easily into your design and and really make it fit any shape so playing around with thee the warp tool is probably the best way you can make it fit and then again if you take that out it looks already really well done and now just need some tiny little touches maybe a tiny little bit of moving like that's called the the spacing it's not called spacing it's called man I've lost all the words for that to place around in between letters but this is pretty much the best and easiest way to do that and so let's see do we have more questions we got a lot more questions in the meantime trying to see there we go so Alan Oliver Kahn okay how you make see if I can find that question again how you make when the word are bigger than the grid boxes so if the words are bigger than the grid boxes you can just duplicate so for example if you have a super long word and you want to keep it small or change the height of the word you can just like increase those boxes like you can move that in say for example if we have a long word like sometimes I'll use that I can also stretch it I can move that around and again you're super flexible and how you use that but you can play around you can move these kind of like this like these boxes are made to be play around with and just tweaked and later like I can even create a 3d version like a Star Wars version by for example just by like tweaking this like if I keep the magnetic piece on here I can just tweak these around and kinda like make it look like it's it's leaning into something and so that's kind of a Star Wars effect in my opinion that can look really cool and thanks to those vertical lines you kind of know how what direction you need to keep that on so tech this duque is asking for a letter builder tutorial well I got one already so you go to my playlist and this video will also be in that playlist but you go to the playlist for a letter builder or grid builder like builder bundle tutorials you'll find that there there's a whole tutorial on how to use your builder and the cool thing is I got a massage in that video too Melinda is asking how can you set up the grid for the number of letters you need so here you you'll never get the exact number for how many letters you need what you could do for other shapes than just those complicated shapes for example like this one here you could just duplicate this and then kind of like make that further up but you can also just again like then combine that to merge them together and then kind of like tweak them around all these things like tweaking around that's kind of like the best lesson that I can give you is to play around with those boxes but that's how you can make it fits all the numbers of letters but also get creative by for example saying like either like perhaps it's perhaps instead of duplicating this you can just erase like half of it so you get all the letter numbers you need for example if you have a seven letter word then just use seven of those boxes and then kind of like create the space in between so it's all about creativity and client kind of playing around like extend the the thing for example if you have the arc somehow somehow my layers aren't it showing again okay so here we have the arc so let me reduce the size a tiny a little bit but if I change the rotation here duplicate that and then change your rotation back I can kind of like find a an angle where these will fit together and I feel like I'm not finding it right now but we're almost there almost too far so kind of like this so you see you can kind of like extend the version by just flipping around turning around and finding new ways to do that letter build a grid builder and composition grids how-to all these come together so again if you looked at before how I explained how to to place them together it's kind of like this way of finding all these elements how you place them into the arc into the boat by using the work function which is probably the easiest way to do that how to use the grid builder with illustrator well that's a great question I am NOT the best person to explain that to you because I rarely use illustrator but we have some people that have been using illustrator for a really long time and I've played around with illustrator once I've created like a letter and it's really fun to use the letter builder inside there but grid builder as well like again just think of it like this like another way kind of like I showed you before and that's I know that you can do that in Illustrator so if I take files over here and imagine this what it would be illustrators would be illustrator so I'll go not in the Procrit folder but for example the individual images PNG and like you have the brushes of course but I can just drag-and-drop and then place these around like move them around and I can do the same thing in in keynotes for example I could create a keynote here see like create a plus set a presentation and then kind of like delete all of these elements kind of like do not need all these whoops and then again try to get whoops see can I get files in here yes so here we go we got files and I can introduce that can move that around not as well as kind of like you can do in Photoshop Photoshop or procreate like but I can move it around and transform it place around see I got a lot more trouble doing that with this one but yes this is pretty much how you could do it also an illustrator hopefully that makes sense [Music] so Eric pain is asking the same thing for Photoshop again helps when you're doing it like when you're using the basic principles that I showed you in procreate that's the best that I can do since I really mostly only use procreate when I create things that's why I can really explain well in procreate but again it is usable in Photoshop but I'm probably not the best one to explain that to you how would you use the grid builder to create twisted text so that is a little bit more complicated so we're getting out of composition but more into like text effects and so you can use a a grid or like thing kind of like this the flag would probably the easiest one to use and then it will go why did I do this did I remove so if I would show tap here plus so I could kind of move this around freeform like try to get this effect somehow where you can get a twist but again this is a lot trickier then then doing this kind of like the opposite way around so I'm not even sure how to do this or explain this right now but I use when I do the twist trick you can just rewatch the whole video on the twist because that uses a different shape and that's more of a text effect than composition and so this root tool is really designed to help you create amazing composition less of like text effects do you ever find it difficult to remember all the different grids and fonts to do when you're on paper so that is a little bit loaded question and a little bit difficult to explain but the short answer is like I know kind of like the shapes that I want like if I draw on paper if I start sketching out something it will kind of look like this where just like coffee like either I I create those shapes and and sometimes like those shapes that I know are in the grid builder are helpful to create those elements but I can easily create these pieces where I play Tetris with myself here so kind of like that and then I know like oh you know what I could also do something like this place around like a letterbox text layer here kind of like twist these around and then you know see like this is kind of like how I would create like elements like trying to do like symmetry and all these elements in here and gets the best look that I possibly can so I hope that this actually helped you to do so I let's see if I have anything else yes so now it's your turn so it's your turn to start creating and I hope that this video helps you to to learn all these new steps again remember that the tools are designed to help you you should not be confined by those tools to just work with them and just they are supposed to help you so if you feel like they're not helping you then then tweak them around make them work for you not against you not try to put you into a box but you should be able to use them as a tool to create something again think of it like if you do not have a composition idea or something then just start playing Tetris play those games like try to fit them in together see what shapes really combine really well you'll find that out as you try it the more you play around with it the easier it will get and again to finalize a piece usually in all the pieces I create I will actually use the grid builder in one form or the other so even on pieces that I've used for coca-cola that have been displayed on Times Square I've used a grid builder and so it's usually in the whole process that I do where you can see that from sketch so here you see from sketch you see already the grid builder in here place inside where I am writing it inside and then just placing it around to finalize it really well and you see how how well I try to stake right on the edges of the line and where know that it's a kind of like bended I try to go over just a tiny little bit just to make sure that it looks really well all right guys it's your turn to start creating to start drawing make sure that you try it out you can find all the links in the description you'll find the time sent there as well in a moment after this is online and can't wait to see what you guys create don't forget to use the hashtag draw with Stefan or grids life I think is the hashtag that we've been using for the grid builder but you can just also use grid builder to share your pieces and I can't wait to see we are loving to see what you guys have been creating with them and hopefully they help you to create even more make it easier for you to create and so I am excited to see what you guys are creating and I hope to see what you are doing very very soon what is left to say not much hope that you guys have a fantastic day and afternoon and hope to see you very very soon so guys see you on the next livestream bye
