Tomme 1a & 1b after a week

The first pressed Tomme 1a hasn't really done much over the past week. I washed it with salt brine and so far its not developed any rind or any mould. I'm sure it will over time. The surface is quite dry and rough, im not sure why. I decided as an experiment to wax Tomme 1b to see how it develops. I'm not sure if I can call this a Tomme now its been waxed..
