Sketch Battle
Fun and action are at the heart of this game! Speed is of the essence here as the task requires participants to draw a given object within a set time! Everyone who’s up for putting “pen to paper” to beat the clock and the other contestants is invited to take part. The designs are created on iPads provided by mStore; the digital sketch pens are from Wacom. Thank you to both! And there’s also a prize to be won: each participant receives a gift – while the winner of the top prize gets a voucher for DOSCH DESIGN products to the value of 250.00 Euros!
