Really nice job!

[@robertbickel6476]

Thank very much for you comment. I believe scratchboard is my favorite medium. Its a challenge sometimes to get the values right. Sometimes simple is better. Take care Cat. Bob.

this looks great. how did you add the divets on the center section?

[@robertbickel6476]

In some cases, it's easier to scratch them out, then put them back in again with Idia ink. You ink in, then adjust with scratching. I used this method on the spotted big cats. Never use India ink outside the scratch area because it will show up as not a match in flatness. Thanks for the question. Take care. Bob.

Hey, may I know what's the blue tool called? From where did you get it?

[@robertbickel6476]

It is a mechanical drawing pencil that takes 2mm lead. In place of the lead I have a 2mm dowel pin. One pencil dowel is ground to a point. The other is ground on a 30 degree angle ( the one I use must often for it gives my a heavier line ). HobbyLobby.
