Description:
Day 14. Working on pony legs. Especially sitting ponies. And what better pony to do this with?
Lyra was a marvelous modeling mare for this session. So I got her a BF beer.
Broke out my Palomino Blackwing Pearl pencils for this. It was gratifying to feel how well they work on the HammerMill copier paper.
The Incense Cedar barrels are nice to chew on, too.
"First created in the 1930’s, Blackwing built a following that included John Steinbeck and Chuck Jones, who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and many other Looney Tunes characters. Discontinued in the 90’s, devotees paid as much as $40 a pencil. In 2010, we revived the Blackwing brand for a new generation of writers, musicians, and others seeking a more natural existence."
They really are nice to work with.
