Does anyone know where to buy mechanical pencils with smaller lead than .5mm?? I can't seem to find any place around here that does and .5 is still too big for my sketches. I need something way tiny for fur detail. Any ideas?
Also, forgive my naivette, but what are acrylic inks? I see that Dark Natasha uses them and achieves quite stunning amounts of fur detail in her work but I haven't the slightest clue what they are or how to use them.

GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Ok that helped.
Meh so I've been trying to sketch the last few days, still seem to be on my "I can't draw anything worth a pair of beans" tirade...so I give you crappy ickle doodles. Yes..these be my accomplishments for the last week or so.
the idea behind this is (and I once again planned my piece of paper out grandly) the otter pup being surprised by a passing crab family. But I draw him too low on the paper x.x...I always do that!
his head scares me O_O
I actually like this one, I think I wanna build on the concept.
someone said I should draw ocelots on dev...well you can't quite tell that its an ocelot here but thats the idea XD. The concept I have for this is an ocelot bar with some rowdy members and a giraffe bartender O_O don't ask..So I may try roughing out the rest of the sketch.
EDIT:
Some folks asked for a cloeup of the eyes on some of my pics. The Jaguarundi hybrids really not the best example since it was quick but here is a closeup just the same. I need to get my butt in gear and do a tutorial on eyes and fur, though Im trying to work out some new techniques for fur rendering myself..thus the main reason for dawdling so with tutorials.
Thank you again to all those that so kindly sent money towards my friend's cause. I sent them the money today :D!

Your welcome for the help for your friends, I enjoy helping out where and when I can!
You and yours take care friend and God bless you both always!
