whats the 'grid' method?

 

[Patrick]

The grid method is pretty much printing the picture out on graph paper, and labeling the x and y axis.. you label it like a bargraph or line graph pretty much, and in each box (example.. a-1) there is a shape/line/something to be drawn in...kinda like this..

I dont know what I am gonna get right now, cuz when I get my s10 i am gonna be doin some mods to it (roll pan, cuttin the doors etc etc etc..)... Does anyone know the best stuff to use on aroll pan??
