Hello famz♥️❤️❤️, how was your day today... I just want to post a process this drawing I did long time ago ....using a dry brush technique only charcoal and eraser for the highlight...
This drawing was made on Strathmore bristle paper...
Using staedler pencils and generals charcoal pencil...
I mostly start my drawing from the eyes ,reason been that I believe once I get the face of the character am drawing the am almost done cause that's the major aspect as for me....
Meanwhile most time I also use
Cotton bud
Tissue paper
Paper stumps
Most times for my blending , depends on the part am drawing.
Looking at the close details , the pores on the face was archieved using the paper stump and the mono zero eraser and electric eraser for highlight.
Also archieving a smooth shading on your pencil drawings require you to go over and over,layer upon layer to get it. This smooth skin texture was archieved after I applied the charcoal almost 4 times .so it requires a lot of patience to archieve this
Most times people ask me how I archieve my dark backgrounds, all I use is charcoal powder and my fingers 😅😅😅, after I have go over the first layering of the charcoal powder using a brush, then I apply the charcoal again then smear down with my fingers and blend it move my fingers in a circular motion pressing down on the paper,not everybody does this most artist uses cotton bud instead of fingers...
By next week am working on a pencil drawing I will do a video to explain this and also the progress shots that should be more clear😊😊😊..
So thanks alot guys if you have come this far and please do well to ❤️like , share✌🏻, and comment😉.
PEACE ♥️♥️♥️✌🏻✌🏻✌️...
