I plan to use these for texture and contrast when drawing and developing designs for art quilts and pieced quilts. This is a set of 4 hard plastic, double sided, texture embossing tiles with 4 common textures: hexagon, dot, diagonal lines and, crosshatch. Each 4" X 5.75" tile has one texture, a small version on one side and larger version on the other side. The tiles have plenty of raised texture, are quick and easy to maneuver underneath the paper, to add texture and shading. Place a tile un...
These are a bit pricey, but they are pretty good to have for artwork. The material is a good heavy plastic, and I expect it will last longer than I will. Not flimsy plastic like some of these types of products are. Not that those are bad, but you get what you pay for. When I color, I sometimes like to make my backgrounds have a design rather than just a sky or colored background, and these are perfect for that. The last picture shows what the pattern is like: it is the same on both sides, but...
These tiles are made of a thick plastic which is sturdy. It's very unlikely that these would break by accident. In other words, they will probably last forever. I am not much of an artist, but got these just for the fun of having an interesting tool. I tested these with a regular 2B pencil and some colored pencils. I even applied some blue watercolor to see if these had any effect, but they didn't. However, after the watercolors dried I went over that area with a colored pencil and the textur...
A useful tool for my drawing, It's well designed and the patterns make it easier for me to sketch. It's size helps me to move it around easily. Overall a high quality product, makes sketches so much easier, with multiple scales available. Price was fair and has a nice case, also seems very durable. I connected it to a key chain to carry it. Arrived quickly, well packed.
Love these sketch tiles to add to drawing projects. They are made with good, sturdy plastic. Should hold up. They do what they say! They're about the size of a smartphone, but a bit wider. Still, if you are on the fence, go for it!
I love sketching, so I was intrigued by SketchTiles. This is a set of 4 tiles, featuring 4 different texture/patterns - a crosshatch grid, a dotted grid, a hexagon grid, and a diagonal lines grid. Each template is double sided, featuring the same grid in 2 different sizes. They come in a storage box, but they all have a hole from which to be hung or kept on a ring for storage purposes. These would be great not just for sketch artists, but for architects, designers, and other visual artists th...
These are super simple, just pieces of hard plastic with a texture on them. They do what they should, which is let you quickly fill in largish design areas of a drawing with a texture. They're fun to play with, and they do save time when the point of a drawing isn't to do every single pencil stroke by hand. Obviously they don't work completely seamlessly if you're trying to fill design areas larger than the size of the tile, but to me that's acceptable given that this style of fill is natural...
These are an absolutely beautiful set of texture tiles. The patterns include four very useful basics, each in two different grid sizes. The tiles are what I would consider a professional grade material made from a solid plastic that should last a lifetime. There's a handy little hole in the corner of each tile so that if you want to store them on a ring instead of in the box, you can do that easily. They perform exactly as they should, with a pattern relief that is pronounced enough so that i...
Excellent Tool, its well designed and very useful for my drawings as the patterns makes it easier for me to sketch with accuracy. its size is perfect to move around under the paper and the patterns comes in different scales. price was fair and it comes in a nice box to carry it. its very durable. arrived quickly. highly recommend
I am a hobbyist so my interest in these texture plates is purely recreational. I recently started playing around with gelli plate printing and wanted to try these out to help me create textural backgrounds for my artwork. I like that the 4 patterns that are included in this set in both smaller and larger sized grids are classic and subtle. Even the sides of each plate with the larger versions of the patterns produce a subtle background that won't compete with the focal point stencils and mask...
first off, i'm utterly delighted by the packaging. it reminds me of old VHS tapes. because of this, i've just been keeping them in it when i take them with me. this of course is a double edged sword: they look adorable in their little box, but they're also harder to fit in some of my bags. i deal with it for the aesthetic though! they're a nice sturdy plastic, but each tile is still nice and lightweight. i love that there are two different scales of each texture on every tile, so each is doin...
I wasn't sure what to expect with this product and I was happy with what I received. Using these reminds me a lot of the little fashion design tiles I had as a kid where you would mix and match the tops, bottoms, shoes, etc and rub it with a crayon. I found that these work better with thinner paper. Using anything thick enough for wet-media will require you to push down pretty hard, and will leave texture on the paper afterwards. Its not necessarily a bad thing, but good to keep in mind. My o...
My wife says: I like these Sketch Tiles. They are well described in the listing and are made of a hard ABS-like plastic. They could be called Versa-tiles because they are so versatile. They work for sketching but I can also use them for several of my other crafts. I tried using them as stamps to make backgrounds for my card making. That did not work very well but I got interesting results using a nearly-dry brayer (tile/paper/brayer). They also make a subtle texture on clay. They cleaned up w...
These are absolutely excellent and useful for so many things. You can use them for drawing, rendering, mixed media- even for journaling if you need a light grid on your paper - just place under the part of the page you want to write on, and lightly rub some graphite over the page to get a light grid that you can then erase after you write with your pen (and the ink dries). I wish they made these in a4 size! Oh, the possibilities... There are no rubbing plates on the market at that size with t...
Plastic templates for doing texture rubbings. Easy to use with graphite pencils. Gets the intended texture consistently every time. I recommend rubbing very lightly to get an even darkness across the whole pattern. Sturdy firm plastic, I expect these to never need to replace them. They have a hole you could use to hang them up or keep them together. I suppose my only complaint is the cost, but you expect this sort of premium for niche tools like this.
I've wished for easier ways to make grids for years. These are perfect, so much easier than rulers or stencils. I'll probably order some larger sizes, but these are great for many uses. Journaling would benefit a lot with them. The material is sturdy & I've used crayons, graphite, & charcoal sticks with them. I also tried using some graphite transfer paper, which worked perfectly with much less mess than charcoal or pastel dust.
These are a great addition to any artist's toolbox. They're good quality and a decent size. I've used them for a couple of projects, and I appreciate how there are two sizes of each pattern, so you can have some visual continuity within a project, but still have a little variety. My daughter has recently claimed them and taken them to her room to use in her art projects, so I guess it's safe to say that they are a hit here.
If I was to mention one of my weaknesses in drawing, it would be texturing. These tools take the pain out of texturing. It does take a little practice with them to really good results. Practice is also great for experimenting with different textures. I'll get a uncolored vector image, and print it a couple times and experiment with textures. I think this is a great addition to a artist's tool kit!
Excellent Tool, its well designed and very useful for my drawings as the patterns makes it easier for me to sketch with accuracy. its size is perfect to move around under the paper and the patterns come in multiple scales. Price was fair and has a nice case, also seems very durable. I connected it to a key chain to carry it around with me everywhere. Arrived quickly and well packed.
My teenage daughter loves to draw and watches tons of videos about drawing and art techniques. I bought these for her to try out, she was so excited saying she'd seen them on ticktoc. I was impressed how sturdy they are, definitely a high quality item that will last a while. She says they work perfectly with her charcoals and graphite pencils.
This is a great type of art supply for drawing, painting, watercolors. The product is sturdy and I'm already enjoying just testing it out with light sketches and watercolor. The panels add really nice comic book-style patterns/textures to traditional art, and they're easy to clean.
These tiles are perfect for adding different textures to my art projects! Love that they are double sided so you get a total of 8 different textures to use. They are made of very thick and durable plastic so I know I will get a lot of use out of these for many years to come!
I have never used a product like this before. I do a lot of art journaling, so this will make for some wonderful backgrounds and decorative spaces. They are heavy, so they will be long-lasting. I like that these are double-sided. So enjoyable!
These sketchtiles make me want more. I ended up spending extra time playing with the textures and how easy it is to create a look and feel using them. I plan on using these both with drawing and as a texture tool for clay.
I've never seen texture plates like these before, but I love the concept. I've tested them all and I think I need to practice more to get the hang of them. Very cool concept and design.
Love these tiles! Takes a lot of time-consuming shading work and turns it into a quick task. Easy to use, I love how portable they are and that they barely take up and space in my art bag!
They come in 4 patterns in 2 sizes (front and back), and can be used for many artistic endeavors to add pattern. Very nice.
These tiles are small, and the pattern is tiny. Way too small to be effective as a pattern.
Fantasic double sided texture plates. Nice, thick plastic that will last.
and easy to use when you need uniform texture for a piece.

I really hope they make more patterns for these. … Love that they're double sided for two sizes of the pattern.
