Sharing a video of a portrait I made.
The materials are graphite pencils. The shades range from 2b, 4b, 6b and 8b. The erasers I used are a hard eraser for erasing heavy strokes and cleaning the background and then a kneaded eraser (a soft and moldable gum eraser) for the light patches of highlights and soft gradation of highlights.
The video is a slideshow of around 200 pictures I took. A detailed documentation of the process.
This drawing was requested by my schoolmate for our professor, sorry I can't put the reference photo as my teacher would not like me to post it. I only have my art to present.
Drawing takes a lot of time, first you look at the facial shape, the angle of the eyes and distance of the nose, eyes, and mouth.
You should ask first:
(1) what is the shape of the face? Is it squarish with a big jaw? Round? Heartshape with a small forehead?馃挱
(2) are the eyes round? Drooping? Or is it slanted? 馃挱
(3) Does the nose look too big or small in my drawing? 馃挱
(4) Is the mouth smiling? Should I emphasize the expression a bit more?馃挱
Anyway, these are just basic guides. If you ever feel like you've done it right, then pat yourself on the back, if wrong?
Practice again and do it again.
I hope you like the simple video presentation, my brother 
I was supposed to put in some more photos of the process but it's all in the video maybe if the pictures aren't as defined and clear, I can comment a few wip photos. Just let me know.
Any questions and comments please don't hesitate!
Thank you very much for stopping by and stay tuned for more art by
