The wall

This is Friday's engraving work. As you can tell, I've been dealing with the engine house wall. I gave this area a great deal of thought; it needed to be light, but darker than the snow. It needed to show a little texture, but not too much because of the size of the engraving. I think it will print ok, I'm happy so far.

I'm working now on the illustration work I mentioned before, but will carry on engraving a little at the end of each day till this is done. I'm looking forward to seeing how it proofs up!
