When you use it
Use this when you draw people, animals and objects together and their sizes must look true to life. Steps: 1. Go to a place where people, animals and objects can be seen together. 2. Observe how their sizes differ and how close they are to each other. 3. Decide how you will measure them. 4. Mark their sizes on your drawing paper in the same ratio.
Watch out
Keep the size of every object in the same ratio. If the sizes are not kept, the drawing loses its true appearance.
