>he implication of imprecision in the underlying data through rough looking "hand drawn" charts and graphs is a really smart design hack. The same approach could be used for mockup apps/websites
There is actually a java swing look and feel called napkin from over a decade ago that is similar.
If the "hand-drawn diagram" look appeals to you and you're a Visio user, you can get this look in Visio 2016. Design tab > Themes > Hand-drawn.
You could also look into drawing hand-drawn diagrams by hand.
But sometimes photos or exported illustrations don't work e.g. when someone else (remote) needs an editable copy.
Does anyone know of a way to draw figures that look like old-fashioned textbook illustrations, which I believe weere hand drawn in India ink? My father's physics books from the fifties are just beautiful.

How about a pencil and ink? Then scan it in, and clean it up.
I write texts that are free, so I am unable to pay someone to do it. At this point I use Asymptote, which does a very good job in the accuracy area and is perfectly professional in appearance. But I just love these figures and I wish I could convince my computer to turn them out.
