Want to create Axons beautifully and quickly like sketch master David Drazil? Below, David shares three must-read tips to take your drawings to new levels AND make your work faster and easier.

Tip 01. Start with a Background Grid

Add background grids, templates or more to use as an underlay to start your drawing. Tap the layer actions (•••) of base layer and then “Change Background”. Next, select an image or PDF from your Library, Camera, Morpholio Storage, Cloud Drives, or from the pre-loaded Morpholio Trace templates!

Tip 02. Layer in Reference Images

Think of your drawing as real Trace paper. You can add images and locate them anywhere in your drawing! Hint: You can also adjust their size by tapping layer actions (•••) and then “Scale&Place.”

Tip 03. Fill Using SmartFill

Need to add some shading or color to your drawing? SmartFill is the tool for you. With Smart Fill you can live fill any area in seconds. Hint: Change the tolerance of the fill area by adjusting the slider!
