Just started. As a former Armored Cavalry officer, I'm always interested in mechanized warfare.

Michael (Mike) is on page 45 of How to draw and paint (Everyday handbook series)
So far so good. Good lecture and exercise on human proportion. Did you know the human body is usually 7-1/2 head-lengths in height? Most of this book is dedicated to work in pencil and charcoal. Good lecture and exercise on shading.

I'm really enjoying this book. The protagonist has just arrived in RVN after completing Jungle Warfare school in the Cana Zone.

Michael (Mike) is starting Mediterranean By Cruise Ship: The Complete Guide to Mediterranean Cruising, Third Edition
This will be quick. Wife has tabbed the relevant sections for the cruise. That along with the map will provide for a quick recon of the trip before sailing.
