Ask HN: What are you working on (August 2024)?

I'm a software engineer with a passion for pencil portraits (https://bpsagar.github.io/sketch). As an artist, I've often thought that a companion sketching app could help beginners and intermediate artists improve their process.

I'm currently working on an app that provides a step-by-step guide to drawing from a reference photo. My goal is to make the sketching process more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

As someone who has always been absolutely awful at sketching, this sounds pretty interesting. Is there a mailing list or some other type of notification I can sign up to?

Thanks for expressing your interest. I've registered the domain Portrait.Coach, but it's not live yet. If you're interested in staying updated, please share your contact details using the form: https://tally.so/r/npNGy3
