    Hi. Thank you. I used a scale ruler to draw from the origional, but to a larger scale. It took me a year and a half to complete. Thats why I like pencil drawing because i can show all the little details that wont be there when using paint.

    Hi Kalb. Thanks. Drawing is really relaxing for me.I did get bored of it at some points, so i would leave it alone for months on end and then start on it again. Im glad its over with now, i have started on another drawing of Londons skyline, but its nowere near completed!
