No one with a brain would do this freehand.
This is really a invalid response. The question was not whether the person doing the drawing had a brain or did not have a brain. No one was talking about brains. The question was how best to, working freehand, brainless or not, place a series of very closely spaced dots fairly accurately, using a tablet. Drawings do not have to present mathematically precise elements except in certain instances. Most hand rendered drawings do not. Do you have something against using computers to produce hand rendered drawings? Do you think all drawing done on computers should only use strictly mathematical input to create strokes and shapes? How about a nice command line only drawing application?
