What did you use for the black in the frames?

Here's a list of the tools I use … I drew this ages ago so either a Faber Castell 8B or theΒ Staedtler Mars Lumograph 8B.

Pencils: Faber Castell 9000 series B, 2B,4B,8B. I have three of each of these pencils, sharp, medium and blunt. Practice using various pressures to achieve different values. I use a Staedtler Mars Lumograph 8B (for black backgrounds). Tombow mono mini eraser, scalpel (to cut Tombow to a sharp edge) Putty eraser or Blu Tack, Jakar mini electric eraser pen, Small & medium tortillions and blending stumps, Jacksons size 6 Studio Synthetic Series brush (to brush away excess eraser rubber) Donegan OptiVISOR jewellers magnifiers, Bristol board 250gm.

I use the grid method and when I'm working on a drawing I'm pretty much doing it grid by grid. My reference is on a computer screen and whichever grid square I'm working on is zoomed into on the screen. That way, the values that surround it don't distract me and I can really concentrate on every detail within that grid square. I spend quite a while studying the grid square I'm about to draw before working on it. This get's my eyes tuned into the values and composition within that section.Β 

Do a Google search for Edward H. Adelson. Β There's a chess board illustration he's done that demonstrates how a value will appear to change depending on what is next to it. Square A and B are the same value in this illustration.Β

Thanks, and thanks for the opinion too. I like the black frame because I feel it makes the image pop….but that's just me!!!

I bet those glasses were fun to get perfect. I had a hell of a time with this one, but I wanted to do it mainly for the glasses:
