Carbon paper and pencil, while being an old school method for making a pattern, it is still one of the best. You still had to have the vision to decide what to sketch which requires a talent on it's own. Good on ya! I absolutely love your rendition.
From the ashes of a tragedy
and a pile of rubble deep
from mountains piled
with twisted steel
a woeful people weep
then somewhere came
a ray of ray of hope
amidst the shattered dreams
as these men came out
and stood upon
all those broken beams

Thank you, Charlie, for showing not only your work, but the explanation of the thistle flower and the video as well. One of my favorite movies as well. I though maybe you might like my Braveheart pattern as well.
