Always Plotting Something…

Flat shading + triangle filling for spheres of varying detail and with different pens.

Only for very simple shapes, but making progress on the pipeline of THREE.js 3D geometry with flat phong shading to different density fillings in the pen plotter compatible vector drawing.

Pens: Pilot V-Pen M (left), Micron 05 (center), Micron 05/02/005 (right)
Size: 150×150mm
Paper: Seawhite recycled cartridge paper 150gsm

Spheres within a row plotted from the same gcode, previewed with 0.4mm pen width. 3D geometry rendered with THREE.js. Fill colours sampled from the pixel render, outlines translated to SVG with a custom THREE.js renderer.
