Wireframe pen plotter drawing with the default settings

Fields

Wireframe

A triangulated wire mesh draped over city blocks, terraced hills, canyons and craters, with hidden lines removed and a frayed edge.

Pens

Colors run from the lowest ground to the peaks, from near to far, or follow the direction of the lines. Starts with 4 pens and works with anywhere from 1 to 8.

Settings

Terrain, Height, Feature size, Roughness, Terrace steps, Flat below, Cells across, Triangles, Plain squares on flat ground, Irregularity, Frayed edge, Framing, Turn (°), Tilt (°), Perspective, Hide lines behind the surface, Color by.

The preview uses the default settings on A4. Press R in the app for random variations. The SVG export is in millimeters with one Inkscape layer per pen, so it works with the AxiDraw extension, vpype and saxi.
