nice gliders, all are good, and I'm liking that pencil quite a bit too.
keep at it, your on the right path, for sure.
Fine work with minimum tools. Spray cans are great, you can do a lot more with them, if you experiment

first cast 8# blue... I know a blue will hit anything.. but I was pretty excited...

Good work. Tell us how they catch.
