I have to say OMG I Love your art work all of your work and if you don't mind I need to ask what Pencil did you use to get that Dark Black like that. and I'm so sorry if this was asked already i looked but did not see it . Again That is so Very Sweet Art Work all of your work i have learned so much just by watching you work so TYVM for all your hard work and taken the time to show us your Drawing Skills !

[thekrakenism]

@Want2BArtist try 6B pencils or 8B pencils... 10B's are extremely rare here... I havent found any.... but 8B is rather black... hope that helps and sorry was late

[bazgrole]

[mnjesyed]

[Autumnleafff]

@mnjesyed Go draw one and show me; maybe its just the animal? Wow, I cant believe you. Go rant on something else.

[TheMot960]

OMG BEYOND AMAZING!!

It looks so eal its unbelievable. Can i ask how long it takes you to do one drawing???

[xXVisionaryXx]

What pencil did you use for the large black areas, and what do you use to protect the drawing from smudging after you've finished

[SimonTrouble]

You are by far one of my favorite artists, awesome job!

[LiaLoveMelody7]

What was the spray can for?

[onlypencil]

@LiaLoveMelody7 its a clear coat that i use on the drawing when its finished. Its a protective coat that prevents smudging.

[LiaLoveMelody7]

@onlypencil oh ok. Do you need a certain brand of pencils to get the picture to look like that? or is it more dependent on skills?

[KralZltko]

@LiaLoveMelody7

Tak "spray can" is called "fixative" it is a liquid, like "varnish" but not similar because it doesnt cause "glossy" cover...... which is usually sprayed on a finished artwork, to better preserve it and prevent smudging or destroying your artwork by heavy manipulation which isnt commonly .. but sometimes when you want to put your artwork into frame, everything can happen :D

Sorry for my english i am also a learner as everybody in this world :)

[jilleus]

hello,

I am Remco.

I draw aswell can you tell me what you use under your drawinghand to prevent that your drawings become dirty?

thx.

[zachchristiansen]

Did you sell this? If so, what was the price?

[onlypencil]

@zachchristiansen I still have it, if you are interested send me a message and ill give you details.

[zachchristiansen]

@onlypencil No, I was just curious, I could never afford it.

[chelsea00133]

AMAZING. That drawing is SO beautiful...

May I ask what kind of tools/pencils you used on this drawing? Its hard to tell in the video

[TheMadelainburgoyne]

WOWOWOWOWOW!

how long have you been drawing for? amazing stuff!

[TitanNV28Coral]

This is BEYOND Amazing!

btw, what did you wear on your head? cous it looks to me like some device that enlarges what you see, so you can draw the tiny details.... is it?

[onlypencil]

Yes, its a magnifying glass that i use to get the most detail as possible, especially for the fur.

[solid910]

and forgot to say.....wow....that's amazing

[solid910]

does using this kind of paper make it that kind of effect? i use like printer paper and i cant seem to do good with it

[twistedtree01]

what kind of paper do you usually draw on ?

[onlypencil]

usually Bristol Vellum

[TheSoraOathkeeper]

The Indenting Stylu,yeah..that tool you used to make invisible line.How can I get one?It seem does not at the art store supply.

[xVilleX4evaX666x]

I saw this on your website I love this one SO much!

[julliaH]

great drawing! and a looot of work

A question: what tipe of paper do u use for your drawings?

[peachi26595]

Fantastic! wow. I'm speechless dude:D i wish i could draw like this too. Go on:D

[Furby0305]

Wow sure you need 400 hours? xD

I have one video while drawing too - but your drawing is MUCH better (my was just 1 hour xD)

And you are so great! You need much more views on deviantart!

[fourone213]

damn! 400 hours of pure dedication...this is ill man...i wish i had the patience to do a 400 hour drawing. maybe one day i'll try and see where it gets me. great job on this!

[rsbognot]

waw even on zoom in the details look amazing

[rsbognot]

hey how do u make the fur look like that?

[leyhan1234]

you are absolutely AMAZING i REALLY want to learn how to draw like that i mostly draw manga and anime but sometimes try to draw realistically. im 12. i go on your website for hours just admiring all your work and thinking about how amazing they are i feel like you took a picture of the animal since its so real but i know its not

[shaalool]

it is Not Great, it is not fabulous . it is more than this .... i dont know what it is .

[Adahli123]

This piece of art deserves the whole world to admire it, its truly amazing.

This one is my second favorite, my first is the wolf sketch, only cause the wolf is my favorite animal.

[samgzag11]

this took you so long, but it's totally worth it. I found your website earlier today and I was truly amazed, i've never seen anyone draw as good as that.

[onlypencil]

thank you so much. the patience does pay off and its always worth it in the end.

[samgzag11]

did you use charcoal in this at all? or did you use anything to blend the pencil?

[onlypencil]

no,no charcoal, the darkest pencil was 8b and i used a color shaper to blend.

[alaynawinchester]

Holy cow! It looks better then a photograph it's so detailed! When you had it close up to show the detail... it frikin looked like real fur! I am blown away right now... I might as well give up drawing forever because I will never be that good :)

[LilScar727]

dude i am prolly ur biggest fan cuz i LUV Drawing and i hav benn drawing since i was 4 and i am 11

[cidazj6]

lol... im really trying not to criticize this cause this came out looking amazing but it seems like someone who can draw something that well would know how to draw it quicker, or did u just work on it in ur spare time?

[onlypencil]

When i work on this drawings, my main goal is not to finish them as fast as possible but make them realistic. I could take less time but the detail wouldn't be there. Its not that im slow, its just that i add alot of detail into them. If i were to draw 8 hours each day on these drawings i would definitely finish them within days. I dont like drawing for too many hours because by the last hours i feel tired and i tend to rush and i slack on the detail.

[connorbag]

thats a lot of time but like you say the detail wouldnt be there if you rushed

photo realism is something I havent touched yet

[Joeyv415]

I completely agree. My drawings take me days upon days but the result is worth it. You do an exceptional job. Your definitely putting more work into this than me. But I think if I keep practicing I'll be where your at in a year or two. I put the pencil down for the past 5 years, but I'm getting back into it. Its like riding a bycicle. Anyone can create great works of art unique to their style at any experience level! Just practice, practice, practice. (tip: don't throw your mistakes out)

[regusto20]

wow, i like how you drew the fur.

[connorbag]

um

it says in the description it took 400 hours? do you mean 40? or is the description right??

[onlypencil]

it took me approximately about that time. Ive been working on this drawing for a couple of months now. The reason for that is because of the amount of detail i put into the hair, especially on the face. I don't usually keep track of the time it takes me but i can tell you that this one has taken me months and when i worked on it, it was for around 5-6 hours.

[Dogopitbulllovesall]

WOW!

You did a wonderful job, I enjoy watching your work.

I hope that I can become as good as you somehow >D

You have an amazing talent and eye for detail,, just incredible job....

[midnightstorm45044]

This is incredible! The detail is too well done for words. I know using only pencil and black and white tools is like your thing, but I would love to see what you could do with prismacolors or some coloring tools.^^

[drtyfknmouth]

Very nice work my friend! Another well done drawing. Nice music too :).

[tgreaper]

I remember watching you work on this piece. It turned out great! Thanks again for the advice on the shading-

Thom
