I don't know? It is the least interesting of the 3. It's the Russian shuttle sitting on top of that giant airplane. It is still raining here. They say the rain is suppose to stop around 5 pm. I wont get to spray my drawing with fixatif until then. On the first drawing I used a regular HB pencil and on this drawing I used a 4B pencil. I wasn't pleased with either. The 4B pencil got short very fast. I am narrowing down my preferred drawing pencil. It might end up being a 2B pencil.

I'm glad that the rains are going away later today. We might get some showers between now and Monday, but the clouds should go away for awhile that day too.

My can of spray fixatif leaked after my last spraying on top of my microwave and made a mess. I had a small pair of bonocular in a case next to it and it messed up the case. Haven't checked the binoculars yet

Uh oh, I hope they're OK. I suspect that the microwave had something to do with that. Was the can close to the vents?

No the microwave wasn't running when the leak occurred. My best guess is that when I capped it the spray button was stuck down.

I didn't even notice until after I posted the photo that I am not happy with the trailing edge of the shuttle's wing at all.

Yeah, it is interesting how one tends to notice things after posting.

It's done it has 2 coats of fixatif. It would never be perfect anyway. It's a drawing not a photo. I'm happy with it.

I threw out that can of fixatif. I only used it 3 times. There was plenty left but I can't take the chance of it keep leaking. I had a close friend in the navy that died from paint fumes.
