Finished carving away the light grey areas which was a bit trickier than I imagined it would be. Those neon tubes were rather tricky. Decided to carve away a little on each tube to act as a highlight. Not quite sure that that is the direction I should have gone, but I did it and now there is no fixing it. Each of the tube had different highlights from the sun so I figured I'd give it a shot.
The carved neon tube highlights were smaller than that pencil point (which was not sharpened). I have some clean up to do down in the grooves to make sure there is no loose lino dust that can be pulled out by the brayer during inking and I want to make sure that there are no areas where I may have missed carving. These steps shouldn't take too long and I should be printing within a day or two.
