I made some "black boards" to use for figure drawing. I simply painted a big piece of foam core with blackboard paint which you can get at the hardware store. I cut it in half to make it more manageable and voila, an erasable reusable surface to practice on.
It allows me to work much bigger (the boards are about 19"x14") than my sketch book does and I can do tonal drawings using colored chalk. I want to move to working with the figure in pastel at some point so this is perfect. Kind of freeing and fun!
