Description
have not much time to draw this week, but i try to finish as fast as i can.HOW I DID THE BACKGROUND:
when i sharpen my 2 mm mechanical pencil i have that very fine graphit powder. i take my cutton pad and smudge with it over the paper, but be careful if you have the powder on the cotton pad use it first on an other piece of paper and then go over your drawing and after it you will have a smooth background
*******************************************
size A3
pencils: 2,0 mm 2B mechanical pencil and 0,7 mm, 0,3 mm 2B mechanical pencil for the dark parts
tools: blending stomp, pencil-eraser, Q-tip, cotton pads and kneaded eraser
time so far: 18 hours

Wow, you did really great in capturing her intense gaze.
Looks like the hair requires tons of patience, but it's really worth it- it looks unbelievably nice and realistic.
Good luck in finishing the drawing, it's sure going to look wonderful!

Woah, thanks for the tip on the background! Your art has inspired me into trying more portrait sketches, and my latest, I had a little bit of a mess doing the background. I couldn't get it smooth enough. Thank you again, and beautiful picture!

just IMPRESSIVE!!!
You're doing a wonderful job with her hair and your "HOW I DID THE BACKGROUND" method is much faster than my brushing technique ah ah
keep up the good work!

hehe thank you
could you tell me how you do the brushing technique?

just scribble on a small sheet of paper with a B pencil, then rub the brush on it so that it loads with graphite and use the brush on the drawing

sounds like it takes a long time, so iΒ΄ll stay by my method ^^

It will sure be one of your best. The light effects look so special; there is very often a bright lighting in your drawings, which gives a kind of "precious" aspect to your art.

What a great idea with the graphite powder! Her hair is turning out beautiful! I think the background helps! I can't wait to see the finished piece of work!!
