EDM 319

Ever wish you knew when to stop? I thought a checkered tablecloth was all this Chinese Diner set up would need. But then it took away from my carefully crafted soy sauce and chopsticks.

So I went back in with a 4B and darkened everything up ... not sure if that was a good move or not. But I got to try my new Staedtler pencils!

You've done a really nice job on this and even though I really like the soy sauce and chopsticks, I think the checkered tablecloth is great!!!
