Description Photo of drawing, thus it looks a little smoother than it actually is. All Prismacolor pencils/colors used (except blender) shown.

Keeping in practice. Practice makes perfect. Here’s to never reaching perfection.

(I should add some body hair, right?)

how could you draw in a small piece of paper? which size of paper do you use to draw? and do you have any tips to draw in a small area like this drawing? (you have to sharpen your pencils a lot right?)

It's wasn't small at all - 9"x12". For much of my pieces I use the Prismacolor Premiere set, which is soft, and the Verithin set for the harder edges, so yes, those have to be kept sharp.

You're shading is simple astounding. I think I can see a few hints of the purple on his foot and lower leg which shows you're very adept with pencil pressure and blending. It's also difficult to find someone who can draw the abs in such a natural looking way. I'm extremely envious of you right now (especially if this was from a live model!)

It's lots and lots of light scribbles and many colours in the same family - and a colourless blending tool. I can't seem to leave the purple pencils in their box, and yes, lower leg and foot, but also scattered among the shadows throughout. Don't be envious, have you looked around DA? AMAZING artists.

Yes. Not the best lit photo. The purple is in there among the shadows.

though Im not a big fan of hyper-realist drawings (and art), there is still something fascinating about looking at a drawing that is almost photographic and yet you feel it's not.
Your tones are amazing! Beautiful work!

It's so freaking awesome!
I have never seen such realistic drawings just with pencil, I can't believe is the only thing you use for your art.
Sorry if you said it before, but which pencil brand do you use?
