I thought that I would pass this on before I forgot about it.Today was such a nice day here in Montreal that I deciced to work(play) outdoors today instead of starting to work(play) on the Jenny fuselage.In my 4th article on building the Jenny,Memories of Flight School,I mentioned using soft brushes for applying pastels to the rough barnsiding.Well I got fed up wearing out brushes on the rough surface,so I checked out my pastels box, that I inherited some time ago ,and discovered a pencil like tightly wound paper shader(I least thats what I call it)All I know is that it is about 5 inches long,about the thickness of a pencil and works just great for shading.Mine says Made in Taiwan # 812 and cost me about a buck(however I dont know how long ago I bought it)Maybe some of the pastel artists out there could better identify it.All I know is that it works well and saves my brushes.Cheers! John.
