This a drawing I made for my friend as a request, it took me close to 40 hours give or take, I wasn't really timing my self and when I was done I presented to him
The materials I used are
greater
sharper
Cotton board and cotton wool
HB pencil
2B pencil
6B pencil
10B pencil
I used my HB pencil to draw the grid line and also to sketch the outline of my drawing.
I then used my 2B pencil to do the lighter shading, while I was shading the grid lines were slowly disappearing until the disappeared totally
I used the 6B pencil to do a more darker shading on the face and hair
I used my 10B pencil todo the darkest shading and I used my cotton wool and cotton board to blend
I always step back to see my drawing from a distance to see if I am okay with it I was very nervous about the drawing because it was my first portrait in about a year. When I was done I present it to him and he liked it
this is a black and white image of my portrait
