Description This is the first time I have used colour in any of my drawings.
If I hadn't you would have been wondering what that big round gap in the middle was. In the original it was an orange, but I forgot and used yellow. So in mine it's a lemon.

Cookai In reply to ttf98 [2006-12-06 19:46:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you
The pencils are Watercolor pencils by Staedtler.
I figure.. hmmm water colour... ok so I didn't have any water handy, just a cup of tea, so I licked the pencil. Stoopid me didn't realise what was going on the paper was also going on my tongue!!!
It was like trying to paint with dry brushes. Very strange.

Tongue has recovered......
