Hey Mental - yes, I've considered the dark paper/pencils option, but I figured I'd get a bit more practice in first! I am nearly at the point of getting frustrated about not being able to show plages etc, so that's probably a good sign both of getting my eye in and slowly getting better at the sketching proper. And if you can get a squizz through a PST (or MaxScope, if you have really crazy solar friends!) it's brilliant - although you might come away with a burning desire to own one, which is what happened to me... (5 min at IISAC last year!)

Les, I don't think I'd ever noticed it change so quickly before; it was awesome!
