Creative Tool!
on March 29, 2016
Posted by: BarbW
We were intrigued by a craft tool that promises "drawing in thin air" and my sons (13 and 15) truly enjoy using this innovative tool!
The AtmosFlare 3D capabilities are awesome, but there is definitely a trick to it. First, you really have to think about what you’re going to draw. Because you’re drawing something that’s going to actually build upon itself, you have to really consider your strategy beforehand. You can’t just scribble something in the air and expect it to come out the way you want it. It's kind of like sculpting with a tube of toothpaste or a hot glue gun – though AtmosFlare ink hardens with light and you end up with a finished product.
Changing the refill colors isn’t difficult, but because the designs build on themselves, it can be kind of a pain in the neck to change the refill color to add a spot of yellow to something red and then to change it back again to finish the piece. This is all the more reason it pays to plan ahead on your design.
Once you have the hang of it, though, the possibilities are endless. As boys tend to, my sons make a lot of 3D vehicles but also enjoyed writing words and creating animals and architectural shapes.
Overall, a fascinating tool that encourages creative thinking. Best suited for older children and teens.
I would recommend this to a friend!
