Here's the latest batch of Dunlop Objects that I've managed to sketch. These are all located in a small area within the LMC.

The Dunlop objects here are:

NGC 1850 - Dunlop 172
NGC 1854 - Dunlop 119
NGC 1858 - Dunlop 120
NGC 1856 - Dunlop 118
NGC 1860 - Dunlop 172
NGC 1863 - Dunlop 173
NGC 1866 - Dunlop 247
NGC 1870 - Dunlop 123

This sketch was done during the Jan. '13 new moon period from Katoomba Airfield using a 17.5" dob at 100X. I've also included an image by Andrew Lockwood of the LMC showing the area the sketch is focused on.
