A technical plan of the Cessna 150, drawn in pen, line by line, on 250 g/m² paper, 11 × 17 in (27.9 x 43.2 cm). A physical nib presses into the paper and lays down real ink, in Québec. On the back: a serial number and a date, drawn in UV ink in the same pass as the artwork.
The 150's silhouette exists as a file, everywhere — a drawing anyone can call up on a screen. What doesn't exist everywhere is a copy that can say who drew it, where, on what day, and under which number.
Built by Cessna Aircraft Company starting in 1958, the 150 was a two-seat, fixed-tricycle-gear trainer monoplane with a 10.11 m (33 ft 2 in) wingspan, 7.29 m (23 ft 11 in) length, and 2.59 m (8 ft 6 in) height. Powered by a 100 hp Continental O-200 engine, it cruised at 152 km/h (94 mph) and reached a top speed of 202 km/h (125 mph). First flown on September 12, 1957, it became the most widely produced trainer aircraft in history, with 23,839 units built before the Cessna 152 succeeded it in production in the summer of 1977. Generations of pilots worldwide learned to fly in one.

Each piece is physically plotted by the studio's precision robot in Québec City, using Stabilo® Fineliners and Sakura® Gelly Roll inks on 250 gsm (120 lb) stock — stroke by stroke, never printed. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink. The result is a tactile, hand-plotted finish — never printed.

Included
Production timelapse included — every order · no extra cost
Watch your piece being plotted, line by line, by the studio's robot. A personal timelapse of your production is sent with every order — to share, or to keep as a record of how your piece came to be.
Hidden signature
Real footage — an early production piece, shown under blacklight.
A signature only UV light reveals
On the back of every piece, in the same pass as the drawing, we plot a signature invisible under normal light — codeink.art, the piece's name and serial number, the year, and Québec. Shine a blacklight on it and it glows.
“The 150 is deceptively simple to draw and genuinely hard to draw well — it's one of the most recognizable light-aircraft silhouettes there is, so every proportion has to land exactly: the high strut-braced wing, the swept tail fin, the slim fuselage tapering to that small tricycle nose gear. Get any one of those slightly off and it stops reading as a 150 and starts reading as 'some small plane.'”
Open production
This piece isn't a limited edition — production stays open. Small variations in ink flow and line closure can occur during physical plotting, giving each plotted piece its own production trace.
The pen wears down as it draws. Ink runs denser at the start. One line closes a hair away from the last. Nothing gets corrected and nothing gets hidden: it's the simplest proof the object was made rather than duplicated.
PERFECTLY imperfect.

Questions & Answers
Everything you need to know
> STATUS: RESOLVED
No. This is an independent piece of art — it isn't affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Cessna, Textron Aviation, or any other rights holder. The aircraft's name is used only to describe the real subject being drawn.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
Side profile and plan view, drawn line by line, on one sheet. No livery, no emblem, no registration: technical linework only.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
Proportions and dimensions come from public technical sources, not from an approximate render. If you spot an error, write to us — we correct the file and redraw the piece.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
It is physically drawn. A precision plotting robot holds a real pen and draws every single line on paper — exactly like a human would, but with mechanical consistency. No inkjet. No toner. No digital print.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
Plotting time varies with the size and complexity of each artwork. Every line must be physically drawn across the paper, so more detailed compositions naturally take longer to complete.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
We use real ink applied directly to the paper by the plotter. Ink colours and pen types may vary depending on the artwork. To help preserve the piece, display it away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
No frame is included. We ship unframed intentionally — so you can choose a frame that complements your space perfectly. The piece fits any standard 11" x 17" / 27.9 × 43.2 cm frame available at IKEA, Artifact Uprising, or local framers.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
Every order includes a personal timelapse video of your specific piece being drawn by the robot. It's sent digitally after your piece ships. Perfect for sharing — or for keeping as a record of your piece's creation.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
Yes. We accept commission work for custom blueprints — aircraft, ships, cars, architecture, or any technical subject. Visit our Commission page to start the conversation.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
No. Every drawing starts from a real source — a technical plan, real geographic data, a photo you send me, or code I write myself. What the robot traces is a human decision, not an automatic generation.
> STATUS: RESOLVED
A print sprays droplets onto the surface. Here, a physical tip presses into the paper and leaves a groove of real ink. In raking light you see the line in relief. Under a loupe you see the crushed fibre. It isn't the same object and it doesn't age the same way.
