Hi Mark, you list a General’s layout pencil in the supplies. Is there a specific size or grade of pencil? Enjoying the courses by the way. So glad I took the plunge!
Sorry Matt. Got your name wrong!
I appreciate the videos and ability to download the e-books. I’d like the opportunity to download the reference photos. Any chance you can make these available for download?
Hi Carol,
The reference photos are found under the resources tab. There are two for this lesson – one with a grid and one without. I hope this helps.
