I'll gave pencils a shot. Not bad.... but also no good.... too messy, need to tidy up... And I still don't get shadowing and lighting... and how to do it with pencils.... I will never give up, until next year!!!!(as in dec 2007)

(note that my scanner cant scan the colors of the pencilsO_o, I dunno why. It scannes my other pics with color O_o) I'll do a photoshop one to.... If I'm not lazy *uber lazy mode*
