Buy one of my drawings

Using a new tool in a drawing.

A few weeks ago I came across an other drawing blog were someone was very enthusiastic about the new electric eraser he had just received.
I didn’t even know those things existed but I had to have one. So I search the Dutch part of the Internet and ordered one. I received it within a few days complete with Chinese manual.
I used it a few weeks ago on my sketch Basket case to correct a few mistakes.
This is the first time I used this tool to shape the drawing.

I still don’t have any idea about how I should draw around the white foam of a wave. So I thought I might draw a blue sea and then erase the foam.
But although eraser works fine I don’t get the effect I was looking for.

On second thought. After taking a shower and scanning the drawing I looked again.
Although I still don’t think this sketch is very good, I do think this tool could have a future as way to shape a drawing.
