Yo! Tried my hand at some eggs on fake skin with a 5rl. I did the egg in the 2nd photo first, but wasn't happy with the attempted shading and decided to try again a bit later. The first egg took me maybe 25 minutes, and the second I spent around 40 minutes on since I tried to slow down more and keep the same needle angle. Both are roughly 3 passes.

Any advice on how to get clean lines?
