*faints* So relieved! I'm so very glad you like it, dahling.

Embarrassed I still feel bad that it took me so long - but at least now it's finally ready for sending. I'll stick it in the frame tomorrow and get it all ready for mailing on Friday.

One last question - Do you have proper fixative? I only have unscented hairspray. It works really well, but it's not AS good as the proper stuff. Of course, I'm sending it pre-framed so it won't smudge in the mail or anything.

*runs at you and hugs you* You made me SO happy! Thank you.

Don't feel bad Smile 4 years later, I'm not started on my brother's- but that was a request, not a commssion.

Ohhhh- you're gonna frame it too? XD Yes, I have fixative- it's like $20 a can, and I do enough pencil drawings to grant it. Besides, I fear hair spray after using my mum's old can when I started off- splotted my work, and it smelled for aaaaages after. I try to go for the real stuff cause of that ^^; Plus you can draw over the fixative I have :nods: It's goooood ^^

    Yes, re-workable is nice stuff. I've never had trouble with the hairspray I buy, though, and it's really and truly unscented. Laughing

    It's still a better idea, I think, for me to send it to you unfixed.
    The frame comes with it, yes, but it's just a cheap frame. It works, but mostly it's to keep the drawing from being smudged.

    Wish I could afford proper fixative... *pout*

    Much love!

        I know - It's more expensive to buy it here. I don't even HAVE 20$ anyhow... I've only just got enough to survive until May if I don't spend any extra. Laughing

        But here it tends to cost $30 to $40 Canadian. Sick Too much to spend when the $1.00 hairspray works so well.

          $1 hairspray sounds good too- I get given the stuff for christmas and things anyways- but it does tend to last, so its worth it if you ge thte money for it ^^
