Slow and steady. Bit by Bit. Section by section, I cut out all the shapes in my sketch. I cut through both the sketch and the papers underneath.

We’ve used this sketchbook for various artistic drawings, writing, sketching, doodling, and calligraphy. The paper quality is impressive, and it’s smudge-resistant, which is a plus.

The duo who call themselves DFT draw familiar objects like trainers, animals, and hands – while never taking their pens off the paper. The artists can spend months conceptualising a single project.

If you like what you see, the robot will then begin to draw your portrait on a piece of paper. It does this using two human-like arms which are made from aluminium and driven by two stepper motors.
