child portrait - speed drawing

[AimToShine]

Thank you very much!:)



[AimToShine]

Which different pencils did you use and for what purposes?

[dfarish]

@AimToShine The pencils ranged from 6B to a 2B I think, cant remember them all. The 6B would be for darks and for lighter tones you would use closer to the 2.

The music makes me want to do the cha cha one minute, and the other minute I feel the need to take my Light Saber out and duel it out with Darf Vader. Oh, and great drawing too!

gooooooooooooood

[teayangxxooo3]

what do you use in blending?

[dfarish]

my only tools are various pencils and a kneaded eraser. sometimes i smudge lightly with my fingers. your really not supposed to because the oil on your hands can ruin it and technically its a shortcut, but i do it anyway. however, most of the time i try to gradually build the form just with the pencil.

[dfarish]

and i will add that i use the kneaded eraser to build the light forms.

[teayangxxooo3]

thanks for replying...=)

[TheEgyptianOne]

@dfarish u can smug it with a pencil eraser without using ur hands and for thelighter shadows use ur kneaded eraser which i think u used but use it to make light shadows.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You're amazing. Do you have any tips for drawing hair? 'Cause I SUCK.

[dfarish]

Thanks! hair i think is very difficult, it helps to think of it in full forms like locks instead of indvidual strands and draw it as such.

amazing, beautiul work

[Flapjack02]

This is awesome! What paper are you working on and what type of pencils? How do you get your shading so smooth?

[dfarish]

Thanks for compliment! The paper on this one was a smooth bristol. Pencils were mostly 4B to 6B and kneaded eraser. The smoothness has a lot to do with the paper, bristol is really smooth.
