Roger—Thank you. I am a fan of the pencils for detail work (and now the crayons, too). There will be more flies using those two media to come.

Thanks, my friend. I need to practice the ink/wash combo more. I really like it, too, but it’s so easy to get overboard with the ink. I do remember the buffalo chip fly (I have the book at home and will check it out again later tonight). Funny thing about those crayons is that they really work. I was pleased with the blues they gave me (and so easily). More in the future!

Outstanding Jason! This is one of my favorite illustration styles. I have a love of the line and then when you add a wash, good things always happen. No cringing on my end! I drew a fly in a semi moist buffalo chip. Any method is acceptable as far as I am concerned.
