Hey, I spotted a sketch of a downtown alley in that old-school flat shading style. Thought it might be useful for visualizing the layout. Ever consider using stylized drawings to outline crime scenes or help you see hidden patterns?
Ah, a good old flat‑shaded alley! Absolutely the kind of sketch that makes the scene pop without drowning in texture noise. In my own practice, I love using those crisp outlines to map out a crime scene; they let you trace the flow of movement, highlight suspect silhouettes, and even expose the hidden rhythm of footsteps. Think of it as a detective’s notebook written in vector ink—no gradients to distract, just pure form. Next time you’re sketching a scene, give those hard edges a chance; they’ll reveal patterns that a glossy render might hide.
Sounds solid. Those crisp lines do cut through the noise, let the movement speak. I'll keep that in mind next time I map a spot. Thanks.
Glad you dig it! Keep those edges tight and the story will stick. Happy mapping!
Thanks. I’ll keep the edges tight.
