    Hey, nice!^^ U seem pretty good @ drawing w/ crayons. Ever considered pastels? I'm working with them right now. Heres a few tips: �buy urself a cheap set first. Then, once you get used to it, work with really nice ones. Once u'v gotten used to them, NEVER go back to the cheap-os. Those things are the devil. >:[ � Shade in the dark areas first, then the mid-tones, then the hilights/ light colors, then the details. use ur finger a lot and make sure you have a nice bottle of workable fixative @ hand @ all times. Remember: workable fixative is ur best friend. ^^ �Dont layer it on thick in one go. just a few, spaced out strokes at a time. Patience is (unfortunately) also ur best friend. (I'm not a very patient person, but hey- it works for me!:D took a lot of practice tho.) If u have any questions, contact me.^^ I'm uh, still trying to find out how 2 do that... BUT I SHALL FIND OUT EVENTUALLY!!! XDDD OPTIMISM = AWESOME!!!
