As there seems to be quite a bit of artistic talent around here, I thought I would start a pencil sketch section .....

PS. I have a set of 3 Rotring pencils, .35, .5 and .7. Also a set of three Rotring pens, same sizes. I have had them for years and used them for engineering drawings. Am I well equipped? Are the pencils similar to the ones you were talking about?

yep that sounds the same, you put lead refills in them, 3 of mine have gone, im going to lost property thursday to check if anyone has handed them in but i doubt it, they were £17 each so i expect someone has stashed them away, i checked in the art department today but they wernt there and none of the teachers have seen them. but i need them for all the fine details for the eyes and fine hairs etc, ive replaced one 3.5

Oh God Frank... What have you Started now?
Conor, your mother is right. The trick is to pass the nice feeling on. Lots of people have done nice things for me and they are like ripples in a pond, if you chuck a stone in for someone else you can keep it going. Glad you are suited, I thought they would fit the bill. Now get drawing!

Watch out Conor, they've been in use by Stanley for many years and will have absorbed magical waves from his powerful brain. You might find things in your next picture that you don't remember drawing. You'll end up imitating Leonardo da Vinci's drawings.
