When a wash is still damp you can scrape out shapes with a credit card or other object that has relatively sharp and flat edge. Use scraping to create new and interesting lights that are not of pure white.
When scraping, the paper needs to be the right amount of wetness: too wet and the paint...

No sign of fodder for the Shaley Brow sheep who were resorting to scraping away the snow to find some grass to nibble.

This buck just thrashed the branches above this scrape. Some leaves still on his back. Now he is making the dirt fly. This is going to be a good area as the rut progresses. Our beautiful world, pass it on.

This butterfly is missing part of its hind wings & looked as though it's been in a scrape or 2, but it was still beautiful... and it was able to fly, just fine.
The Variable Oystercatcher (Haematopus unicolour, torea-pango in Maori), a species of wading bird, is endemic to New Zealand. They are also known as 'red bills'. "Variable" refers to the frontal plumage, which ranges from pied through mottled to all black. They are polymorphic meaning they have different genetic variants. Blacker birds are more common in the south; all Stewart Island variable oystercatchers are black.
DISCRIPTION
Variables have pink legs, an orange eye ring and red beaks. Males are around 678 grams and females slightly larger at around 724 grams. Variables can be identified as they are slightly larger than the (black and white) South Island Pied Oystercatchers (SIPOs) which are around 550 grams. Occasionally totally black, but if they are pied (black and white) they can be easily confused with SIPOs. The variable species has less definition between the black and the white area, as well as a mottled band on the leading edges of the underwing. Variables also have a smaller white rump patch which is only a band across the base of the tail rather than a wide wedge shape reaching up to the middle of the back as in the SIPO. When mottled they are sometimes called 'smudgies'.
BREEDING
Variables are often seen in pairs on the coast all around New Zealand. Once mated pairs rarely divorce. They breed in North Island, South Island, Stewart Island, and Chatham Islands. They do not breed inland or beside rivers, although the SIPO does. They nest on the shore between rocks or on sand dunes by making a scrape out of the sand or shingle, sometimes lined with some seaweed. During breeding, the pair will defend their territory, sometimes aggressively. They usually lay 2 to 3 eggs, but they can lay up to 5. The eggs are typically stone coloured with small brown patches all over. Eggs hatch in 25 to 32 days. Chicks are well camouflaged by their colour and can fly in about 6 weeks. After breeding they may be seen within or on the edges of flocks of SIPO which also have vivid orange beaks. After breeding they may even form small flocks of their own. The bird lives up to about 27 years.
FOOD
They are noisy and talkative birds, and when in flight they make a high pitched 'kleep kleep' sound. The birds feed on molluscs, crabs and marine worms. After heavy rain, they sometime go inland in search of earthworms. They can open a shellfish by either hammering a hole in it or getting the bill between the two shells (of a bivalve) and twisting them apart.

Take it away.
Under my skin.
Press down hard.
Roll my feet back and forth.
Wood under my nails.
Sharp edges.
Hands shake.
& I don't love you or miss you anymore than I used to.
It's not that at all.
It's that I feel you in my bones, and I itch.
I'm trying to find the surface behind these reasons.
The windscreen and lower dash are my next area of attention. Beading was the first to go to allow better access and let Graham strip the beading off the bus as it much easier for him. Wet paint meant scraping only. Well scraping and chiseling as the windscreen surround is full of filler which is not needed. I suspect someone was a want to be sculptor.

It looks like work is now complete at SWT Catcott and the scrape is big! More of a pond and scrape now :)
