Description
Here is the illustration that resulted from my latest YouTube video, "Time Lapse Drawing: Realism Challenge-- Mushroom." In the video you can see clips from every step in the illustration process, from first pencils to finishing touches:[link]
I've taken the unusual step of including a ruler here, since my decision to do the drawing at the exact size of the real mushroom made for a very small working area: Good practice for pushing one's control of the drawing and coloring media to the limit.
Some commenters said they wished I'd put more time into it so as to get a more realistic final result. I think they're right, and next time I undertake such a project I will strive to do better.

Hey Mark-sensei. I've asked a mall bookstore to have your books at their shelves. But. What the hell? It's sold out already after a few weeks or so. Damn. They're fast.

''Some commenters said they wished I'd put more time into it so as to get a more realistic final result.''
True since the lighter shadow seems to be a little blue. And overall I think the picture should have been a little darker.
Other vise, you did a good job.

Really well done. I just miss the blue in the shadow. As You can see, it's there in the real picture.^^
