That's just idle speculation on my part, not inside info'. I must be honest, I really like messing around with pencil again.<BR/><BR/>Also, bear in mind the 'rough' is itself a printed copy, not the actual pencil drawing, and usually pretty close to a finish.Rod McKiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322224888246015883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25473451.post-17911756696881719442008-08-12T13:48:00.000-04:002008-08-12T13:48:00.000-04:00Call me old school but I still like to see a rough...Call me old school but I still like to see a rough from a new potential artist.
