Of course, I make no legal claims whatsoever on whatever you do with the ideas presented here. I believe this evokes a certain level of weirdness. With a weird penchant for making stained-glass windows. The protagonist is Auria Gustawynde, youngest member of Gustawynde-Sandbrook line of wind-witches… who ends up among the Order of Dried Petals, a group of assassins. I’ve been writing a fantasy novella set in the Avarthrel world. So toward the end, I recommend you go crazy and experiment a little bit. I’d love to turn this into a GIMP script if the process was anything close to straightforward, but it isn’t. Note that this isn’t a complete step-by-step tutorial because every drawing done using this process needs a little bit of manual futzing. It’s been a while, though, and I didn’t entirely remember the process this time around - but it was fun to rediscover the process, and document it. You can use just rectangles, where you type in the measures in the toolbar, with the same scale factor you used for the balcony.I’ve been making these fascinating stained glass window drawings in Inkscape and GIMP for a while, and I had another go at it. Draw your furniture in a new layer "Furniture".Optionally draw doors and windows, possibly in a new layer.Turn down opacity to about 60% to be able to see features on the Background bitmap.Easiest is probably to use simple lines with a specified width and a nice color. Doing this only visually is just fine, that scan is not exact anyway.

Then scale the rest of the image to match it. In our example, we use the 3×2 meter balcony, so a rectangle of 300×200 is good.

a rectangle) of which you know the real dimensions of. Adjust scale of the image: draw an object (e.g.Import the bitmap floor plan into it, and rotate it so that most of the walls are horizontal and/or vertical.Open up Inkscape, and create a new layer, let's call it "Background".You will thus have a bitmap, and we will trace it into a vector image, but without using the automatic Trace feature of Inkscape. If you did not get an electronic copy of the floor plan, the first step is to scan it. You got a printout of a floor plan from the landlord, showing the walls, door and windows, and a few (but maybe not all) measures, similar to this: Assume you want to draw a floor plan for your apartment.
