@catbert, I'm in loss of superlatives! Brilliant! How is the kakimori nib by the way? Does it have any flex? Did you see their new classy wood dip holders?

THIS is brilliant!

I meant this Kakimori nib — definitely no flex.

Fits perfectly in a Tachikawa holder. (The Kakimori holders look very nice, though.)
@ catbert:
Impressive! Very creative, good job!

Prompt: Puppet In the UK we have an old TV hand puppet show that was called The Sooty Show. Sooty's friend is called Sweep and his girlfriend is called Soo. I decided to draw Soo as she fit in well with my black Rotring Tikki.

I started first with an uninspired "angel" which is more of pimply teenager, fresh from angel school....

Then I got inspired by a Mesopotamian "angel"....

I guess they decided to avoid the obvious for February 2nd. But I'll have to look for some photos of groundhogs to draw. Or perhaps just portraits of Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell.
