New scans added for a bunch of pages. sloppy scans I must admit, but they seem to add some "this actually a real book" feel. the 8861miles project is quickly nearing an end. I'm kinda expecting Lene to take this across the finish line and yell eureka. hope to see you all when the book is auctioned away for charity.

Another shipping note
The book is ready for Australia. I would like to apologise to Lene and to the probably only person following this blog by now. Sorry. I should have done a lot more work and a hell of a lot sooner. I am sorry, it will not happen again.
On a lighter note, Lene and I have talked about the possibility of selling the book through ebay once we are done filling the pages. We would like to hear if that would be something any one you would be interested in. Owning the original and first 8861miles sketchbook. with smells, stains, and loads of original art. Let us know, okay. (Peter)

Another brushpen drawing, this time without a pencil sketch to follow. some parts work, some don't. The lines turn rather grayish on the moleskinpaper... it actually looks better on cheap paper. expensive crap. (Peter)
Pages 69-70

I actually did a small sketch before I started inking with my brushpen, not that it shows. the drawing is as scruffy as the bear. (Peter)

images moving server
All the images on 8861miles will be moving to a different server, due to this the images might be missing for a couple of days, but they will reappear during the weekend.

Drawings on scrap
Those of you who have been following this blog for a while, might be interested in knowing that I have published a book through cafepress, it's called "Drawings on scrap", and it's 144 pages of doodles, drawings, studies, sketches and weird marks, all done on scrap paper. If you visit my personal blog: http://peter-hermann.blogspot.com, you can read reviews of the book by such incredible talented people as Guy Davis, Alec Stevens, John Cuneo, Sune Ehlers, Martin Madsen and 8861miles own outback artist Lene.

Third shipping note
A lot of black ink and acrylic went into the pages this time around. Now it's time to put the book in a sturdy envelope and send it to Australia, where Lene hopefully will add lots of new pages and lift some of the old ones to higher grounds. (Peter)
Book 01: pages 53-54

(Lene)
Well. I started out wanting to paint a really funny looking frog. Then I downgraded my wishes / hopes and setteled for a frog-looking thing. (Peter)
Book 01: pages 47-48 finished
Lene says you can't have too many dino's. I agree, and the same goes for frogs. Anyone you have visited my own blog will know what I mean. (Peter)

Book 01: pages 39-40 finished
I really liked this spread, so I just added a few brush lines to the bird and the dino, to make them jump out a bit. (Peter)
They are all over my garden. I guess they had to appear in my drawings. Cheeky birds! (Lene)

Hand-over note
The book will not ship out by mail this time. Lene is visiting in Denmark for a few days, the book will be handed over in person during a day of drawing at the local zoo. (Peter)
Book 01: pages 37-38 finished
Oops, I am so sorry about that. (Lene)
This was so much fun to do. An old worn out brush and a bottle of trusted ink... straight to finish. (I forgot to write in the pagenumber before I scanned it) (Peter)
