Milliways: now offering free art lessons!
So. There's this whole Thom learning how to draw plot. Jane, being a fairly talented artist herself, can't help but get involved, and wants to start giving him tips since he's obviously new at this.
Problem: I'm a writer, not an artist. MOM'S the artist. She's out of town, would be asleep now anyway, and prolly wouldn't understand why I was asking her all this stuff when I wasn't making one of my side attempts at drawing.
Fortunately, Thom's RPer IS an artist. So she's been fact-checking and otherwise giving me advice so I don't post the wrong thing. ::is really, really glad she finally broke down and got YM::
I'm better at color theory, I swear. It's the actual drawing wot gets me down...
