    I've been seeing Facebook posts in pencil groups that say they're working on drafting film and I had to check it out to see what they meant by drafting film (and if it was tracing paper.) Your video was the top result and you answered that question really quick, so I got my answer and stayed to watch the rest! Lovely work on that dog. I'll definitely have to get some proper drafting film and try this sometime!

    This was so helpful! I just bought my first pad of drafting film. When you mentioned double matte I panicked and ran off to check what I bought 😂

    That dog is gorgeous! Ive done one drawing on drafting film, it was buttons for the colored pencil magazine monthly challenge, but I wouldn’t have thought to draw an animal on it. This turned out so well, I think I will give it a try

    Wow I’m so glad I found this video! This brings me back to my childhood days, drawing on scraps of drafting film my father had for his business as a surveyor. I loved how markers and pencil go on this paper. I need to get some of this asap!

    Hi can you scan or photocopy a drafting film piece of work like you would paper?

    Drafting film reminds me of Vellum

    I have some drafting film left over from when I worked as a production artist for a ad agency in the late 80's early 90's. I used it all of the time to ink maps, elevations and floor plans with my Rapidograph ink pens. That was fun! Back then it was made by Seth Cole and was called Dura-Lene. I am sure today's Dura-lar is the same thing. You need to make sure you don't touch the surface too much because the oils from your hands gets on the surface. I used to clean mine before I inked with a solvent called Bestine other wise the ink would puddle on the surface when it hit the hand oils. Yeah, I am old!

    I don't get it. I draw design work on vellum. Are you tracing the image?
