Description
I had acquire a light table with no cost... xD ( actually some people want me to share this to other so i did it)you know I suck at drawing background and I do not have money to buy a light desk so let do it in cavemen version of light desk
the photo picture of the cherry blossom festival is credit from that pict just in case ( i dont have time to take train to sf for that)
- bendable lamp ( any lamp)
-put it under the glass desk ( if you dont have a glass desk, find a glass)
-start tracing. ( dun dun now you have a background xD)

no you put the pict that used to trace under the drawing paper not under the glass lmfao XD so when the light hit on both the paper you see the the main paper that you tries to trace show on the drawing paper then trace it from there...Β
yes the lamp underneath the glass will make the original pict visible xD but if you put the drawing paper under the glass, all you do right there is burn the house down XD because the heat cause it to be very flammableΒ

I made a fake light table ( put a lampt under the glass desk) clip the plain paper and the background picture ( either print it from google or real photo take by camera) underneath of it and just draw it from there

Awesome idea! 
I haven't seen that done before with artists for alternatives for a light box. I only saw tips on making a homemade light box, using a window with sunlight, or using the TV screen when it's turned on.
