    Well, that makes two of us. Egg.

    I have the line in my drawing. You have the line in your drawing.
    So, what is it that's wrong?

    I've not changed the line. I've added to it, as you've added to it.
    Without adding more to the line, I'm not sure how we're supposed to make anything?!

    And, how come all of my drawings in 2017 have been OK?

    Thank you, Larry! I've been playing with the art brushes lately, so tried this. All the scribble, some turned into brushes with some width and profile changes.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    My problem is not that you did not use the entire line but it looks like you broke the line and used half in one place and the other half in another spot. Maybe that's what you did and maybe it isn't, only you know for sure. As to the second part I have no answer. It is not easy to spot the line sometimes, and also because I trust you.
    At any rate rest assured I will be trying harder from now on. Not that that's any consolation.

    Larry:
    PLEASE see the attached drawing, which clearly shows your line in its ENTIRITY.
    The complete line.
    The whole thing.

    I've already demonstrated all this in Post #11 and Post #17

    And I'm demonstrating it again here in this post.

    OK I give I just looked at the line posted xar and png. I thought it was a vertical on both ends with a curve between. at least that is what I remember doing, I must have changed it and didn't remember .
    Therefore I owe both you and Egg an apology.
    Sorry Rik. Sorry Egg.

    Oh yeah, I looked at some of your 2017 scribble posts Rik and they were all properly done.

    If my brain keeps this up someone else may need to submit the scribble lines.
