This is great; I have just gone mad and ordered a modern camera lucida called a Neolucida just for fun but I hope it will help me do something similar. I am a bit hopeless with phones - (Old Codger Syndrome)
I bought a camera lucida a few years back but couldn't figure out the angles for it to be useful enough for me. Hopefully yours will be better. I've also recently discovered using a 'comparitor mirror' like in the documentary, Tim's Vermeer. Have a look here: ruclips.net/video/jIaRRfJBHpI/видео.html
Hi i appreciate the detail review!!! Can you download it both your phone and tablet without purchasing the apps again? Or it will be just for one device per purchase?thank you
You'll have to message the developer for a definite answer to that. But if I was to hazard a guess, I'd say that you can't have it on both devices from one purchase. If you have an iPhone, however, you can use both devices with the new mural app.
I didn't like it. but a nice idea, its good for small images. you would need a tripod device to hold your cell phone. Limited in drawing space without having your pencil bump the cell phone. Great if your eyes have trouble with small drawings.
I don't understand how, after drawing around the nose, you moved the image onscreen to have the glasses in the centre and still were able to draw in the correct place on the paper. Also, you have your glass covering the image. How do work around that?
you have to keep moving the glass every time you need to draw where it is on the paper. then you have to realign your image on the screen to match where you've drawn to. Does that make sense? Draw up to the glass, move the glass, realign the reference image in the app, carry on drawing, repeat if necessary
You can rotate your reference image the same way you resize it. Click on 'move', then 'image' and use two fingers and manually rotate the image in the direction and amount you want. Once done, press 'lock' Hope that helps and thanks for watching ;-)
I turned the photo on its side because of the aspect ratio of RUclips videos. I wanted you to be able to see the whole screen/interface without losing it off the bottom of the screen.
I have the iPhone one. I hate this app. Very awkward. Guess I’ll just stick to my tracing board. The strobe feature induces my seizures even when it’s slow.
I am sure this would be a very helpful tutorial but I just can't listen to that terrible terrible clunking pseudo piano noise. It completely swamps the low, almost mumbling voice of the instructor.
seeing your vid explains how to use this app that none of the DaVinci tutorials have shown me…thanks!
So very glad I found this clear instruction. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for this. Really enjoyed your way of getting the information across.
Thank you.
Thank you. This was a great tutorial. Explains allot 😊
Thanks for the tutorial! What is the black pencil holder/crutch you are using?
It's a pencil extender from Derwent - here: amzn.to/3IPbtgr
Do I have to use the paid version to try to draw some of the photos I have in my iPhone library.. I could only see the rabbit and the shapes.
WOW!

@@tommullinerart I appreciate it. Whats the mural app?
It's called Da Vinci Eye Mural Maker (I think) Only available on iOS devices ruclips.net/video/bJsIEReAYDE/видео.html
Hi if you use a Google account or Apple ID you can use it on the devices that are compatible to those accounts.

@@tommullinerart thank you Tom.
Would it work better with a regular computer or iPad especially for a bigger image?
there is an additional app you can use for iPad for outlining larger artworks.
@@tommullinerart Thk u . Would u know the name? Thk u again either way. :)
How do you import a photo from your iPad Photo library to Da Vinci Eye App located on another (second) iPad (or Android) tablet?
you can send it to yourself either using an app like WhatsApp or email it to yourself
Hi ! what phone did you use? android or ios?
I used an android phone (Samsung Galaxy S8+) for this demonstration. The user interface will differ depending on the platform you r phone uses.
Hi. Does it work offline?
yes, it does.
My previous comment disappeared. How to you turn the image from landscape to portrait?
You can rotate your reference image the same way you resize it. Click on 'move', then 'image' and use two fingers and manually rotate the image in the direction and amount you want. Once done, press 'lock' Hope that helps and thanks for watching ;-)
Better tutorials from DaVinci Eye App
Well I have an other interface as you and I don’t find the Tutorials
yes, there has been a software and user interface upgrade since my video came out - but the general principles of how it works remain the same
Why not secure the phone on a stand use masking tape to secure the paper...avoid all the fiddling with the alignment?
Why are you drawing your face on its side? I would’ve liked to see how to turn it right side up

Check out the camera Lucida. It’s for iOS but looks amazing. Shows how to do larger.
