Review on 🎨 The LUCY Drawing Tool: Revolutionizing Art with the Ultimate Versatile Camera Lucida by Amanda Castillo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Product works as advertised but.

Great product; I use this all the time. Easy to assemble, easy to store, I accidentally dropped the glass a few times and had no problems so it was sturdy. The only downside I see is that you need perfect lighting conditions to get a nice, traceable outline. I've tried using it in the sun in a lighted studio but the best results I've had is using a handheld spotlight so I can get the perfect tracing image. I use a spotlight and adjust the lighting as I trace. So far I haven't had to use filters after tracking 50+ images. I traced directly onto paper and cotton canvas. With the help of a handheld searchlight, I was able to use this device in any light, dark or bright. I wish the flex cable was offered in longer lengths. Great product for the price. I would buy it again and recommend it to everyone. Once you get the hang of it, it's a great tool.

Pros
  • Larger, more stable image (up to 19" x 27" from life)
Cons
  • Faint
