Description
I'm not sure if some parts aren't embarassing obvious. That's not a complicated technique to colour fur so I wasn't sure what I should write.Hope it will be helpful c:
Person who requested it wanted it to be about colouring "holes" in fur. I just realised I cannot do that. So for now you have this and I will be studying "holes" in fur to make for you a little third part.

The tutorial is amazing,and thank you very much for those cheering words
As for the pencils,I use Faber Castell too,but the only thing I managed to get was a pack of 24 colour pencils(only thing that I could find)Is this good for a start?And would it make any difference if you use black instead of a mechanical pencil?

You're welcome and thank you c: That was the exact purpose.
It's very good for a start. I suppose FC is a company with all products of decent quality, no matter cheap or more expensive, as long as it's FC.
I use black for very intensive shades(when pencil can't get any darker). It might work for regular shades too, you can always experiment. I would also advice mixing with darker shades(for example blue + darker blue + black)it will create wider range of the shade c:.
good luck

Ohhh i'm still waiting on my prismacolor pencils...

And i like the final result on your sparkle dog, there!
You took ONLY colours that i hate, but did something really neat out of it! 
Thanks for the tutorial, it sure had a lot of tips!
(WAHAHAHA and about what you said, eh, drawing wolves from Balto! I did that too, and i got super-depressed because i couldn't!!) old memories! x'D

Quick question, how do you shade white fur? i tried gray by it seems a little bland.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay. white is always more complicated. it dpends on what is comfortable for you, what effect you want to achieve and waht effect you like.
I usualy do a blend of hard pencil and any colour I like for the shade. this colour can fit with other colours of the character or the background.
[link] like here I took light blue and gray - pencil
[link] or here pink and grayish violet.
if you take one colour for shading it most probably will look flat anyway. several colours used gives depth.
it's all open for new experiments c:

^^ well now i know how to color better. but seems it takes a long time to color?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that's great
yes that's true. but I think it's a matter of practice. I bet some artist who draw many pictures in very close style can do them in little time and almost not thinking, just doing them like a machine.
some techniques require more time, some - little, that's normal.

Ah ok XD
Well.. im trying to get over a really really bad art block. I havent been able to work on art seriously (like i used to) in almost a year...=[
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
awwww. I had such artblock once. it was terrible....
I think sometimes they just come and go. maybe you need to recall how it was to draw for yourself? without feeling any pressure?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its weird..but.. i have no artistic pressure.. i think its other areas of my life that stress me. And now.. i pick up a pencil and look at the page and it just seems like a lot of work now to create something v_v
Maybe... ive got depression...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
sorry, I had to leave for few days.
so you have to deal with other problems first :<. I have art block now too because for a month I'm constantly preparing for my final exams. it's the same as being a sportsmen and staying fit. if you stop excersising then you loose your abilities.
sometimes in life there are more important things than drawing xp
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well welcome back XD
Yeah.. but i dont know what the problem is exactly. Lol..
I dont wanna lose my abilities D; I love drawing...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ouu, well that's more tough than I thought.
So don't ever stop drawing ^^. If you love it then sooner or later the artblock should disapear.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ok. ^^ I hope it goes away i hate feeling like this
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you ^^
