General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much.

Stroll down memory lane is painful!

Geez,
How many of us folks remember the Etch A Sketch? I remember spending hours trying to make a circle or anything decent on it. I never could master a curve. I was just happy being able to come fairly close to rounding off the edges of some pictures.
Then a friend has to send me this link to let me know how incompetent I really was.....

Now that I have been reminded about painful childhood memories, I shall slink off and find myself a drink and maybe my blankie!

Etch a sketchy

Candy,
Wow. Is that for real? As someone who spent countless hours of my youth etch a sketching away that is just unbelievable. All this time I thought my square trucks with the square tires were pretty dang good.

Take care & God bless,

I don't recall the etch-a-sketch being capable of depth in shading. I don't think those were done on an etch-a-sketch. If you look closely, almost all of them incorporate depth in the shading, darker and lighter shades. The etch-a-scetch didn;t do that....did it? It's been a long time, but i don't think so.

I think someone is just using the etch-a-sketch image as a frame for pencil sketches.

Nope. Those are indeed real, and I've seen a couple in person. Sketches like the ones featured take 40-50 hours of work.

Talking Truly amazing

If those pics are for real (and I have no reason to believe they are not) it is incredible to me that they were done on an Etch A Sketch. That makes me want to go out and buy one . . . . . for my kids of course.

Take care & God bless,
Phil

Okay, I will be the first to confess. I went out and bought an etch a sketch. I can see how to do the shading....
BUT, age hasn't improved my skills any! I still can't even make a circle! Maybe I should set this as one of my big goals in life?
Got to have something to look forward to!!!
Excuse me? NOOOO!!! Don't shake that etch a sketch!!!!!!!
ARGHHHH!!!!!!
