first four from the plane. last three from before - waiting for words, but they never came - and to be honest the blabbering in the first few seems a little forced, but given my travel schedule over the past 6 days, i am not going to beat myself or anyone else up for it.

if anyone has any suggestions on how to maintain the color/light of a drawing like this and the third one from yesterday's post when scanning, please advise. with simple pen drawings (meaning no added color to provide contrast) the image gets terribly washed out and i cannot maintain the hue of the paper (brown) - same paper as seen in the drawings from august 10.
