Grider - The Grid Creator

Create, customize and export grids on top of reference images, for drawing guidance, a tool for artists and those learning how to draw. https://splitpainter.itch.io/grider

With Grider you load a reference image, customize different grids on top of it and then export the grid and import it into your your prefered drawing application to use as a drawing guidance. Since the exported grid is a PNG image, you can also print it and modify as needed.

Grider also exports the grid on top of the reference image, as a separate file.

The Grids produced allow you to learn and draw following the Leonardo Da Vinci method.

How to Use

• Load a reference image
• Choose where the grid will be saved to (Set Save Path)
• Scale the image if you want (the grid will be exported at the selected scale)
• Customize each grid type available. You can choose the line width and color, and also toggle grids on and off.
• Export
• Import the grids into your drawing application and draw/paint (or print it).
