do you have some? Laughing

heh, I've actually been looking for some blue colored pencil leads for sketching, but wasn't able to find any. If you know where I can get some, or know of the name/address of some art supply store in Toronto worth checking out, let me know.

In case you're wondering, blue is better for sketching then grey since you vividly see where you already inked. Also the scanner doesnt pick up blue when you scan black&white Wink

I think pretty much any art store would have blue pencils ... I dunno any specific ones in toronto, but try looking at the yellow pages or something :/

well I got some 0.5mm blue leads from that store Smile

they're blue and they break easily Confused Which is not good, since they're more expensive then grey lead and when a part of it break off... well that sucks.

If I'll get too frastraited, I suppose I could just buy some regular blue pencils Laughing

yeah, thats what I though after... but buying pencils by one justs just as much...

w/e, I got used to the pencil now, its preaty cool. I've also found a scaner to use (mine is broken, so I'll be using one in school).

Now I just need to find some time and ideas for some cool sketches.
