Ouch... good thing the landlord did it and is responsible for it, and if anything gets ruined in the house the onus is on him :D

Nice work in the pic. I like the hatching technique with the black marker? Is that what the darkest parts are? Or does the blue ink appear to be black from scanning in the image? Either way it's pimp ;)

Also,
Are you working on any big projects atm?

shit i got home and the phone was broke too. luckily ern works half day tomorrow so i have the phone guy and the plumbing guy coming out in the morning. it's black felt tip with blue "fine" ballpoint and dried up blue felt pen to smooth.

big things right now are scraps project, small, not finished. and the train, "big" but not really.

looks like soft metal.
I thought you had used alcohol on the ballpoint and all that marker was just bleded ink.

I think this approach works best in regards to the whole shiny metal look that you have been dabbling with. Your drawings have been good lately. You were getting lazy for a bit.

thanks j. i've been lazy. i go through lazy/not lazy cycles.

the scrap lady was looking for 25 more scrap folks so i tipped her off to you.
