Thomas Pavitte's videos
*As of the 2nd of October 2011, I can announce that I have 50 limited edition prints of my mona lisa for sale on shop.thomasmakesstuff.com*

I couldn't find a record for the most complex dot-to-dot drawing, so I decided to set one myself. I created an A0 poster with dots numbered from 1 to 6,329 and took a time lapse video of myself linking them all up over 9 hours. The full project is online at thomasmakesstuff.com and behance.net/thomaspavitte

    great project! was there a system to how you went about plotting the points, i noticed you color coded the dots. did it eventually get confusing once all the lines started getting drawn?

    Thanks Bharat. I worked out to composition of all the dots in illustrator first. A lot of manual labour involved. Good observation, on the colour coded dots, I made every batch of 400 dots a different colour to try to help myself not get confused. It started off not too hard, but once the lines started getting so busy, it got very confusing.
