Since theres some fine pencil work going on, i thought i'd join in. Pencils are really hard to use so hats off to those that do it all the time and do it well. I enjoyed it but feel more confident with paint. Might invest in some good pencils and paper though as the kids set from tesco didnt help me out! lol

Anyways, heres mine:

Thanks guys...

Monkey: I wondered why yours are always soo smooth. That was my main problem with this piece, it's so grainy. I'm not sure I have the spare cash to fork out £50 on pencils but I'll have to get to a decent art supply store soon to get some good paper! :)

Scott, if you want £50 for some pencils, mount that sucker up, and you can have £50....

How big is it???

Let me know, I am interested....
