Tick marks

Transferring it to your board

  1. Mark the horizon on both side edges in thin paint, chalk, or vine charcoal.
  2. Tick each line's height on the start edge (bold column).
  3. Tick the far edge and any checkpoints from the same row.
  4. Connect the ticks dot to dot in short strokes. A mahlstick steadies your hand.
  5. Every line drawn this way meets at the same off-board vanishing point.
