Draw a Sculpture with Our 3D Pen!

When (Date)
Where
The Workshop

Sure you've drawn in 2D but with our new 3D Pen you can take your sketches to another dimension, the 3rd Dimension. This pen is (something) like a manual 3D printer, it uses plastic filament that it softens as it heats up allowing you to draw lines that cool into your final 3D masterpiece.
