Description
okay so we are seeing a theme of birds in my gifts BUT IN MY DEFENCE HE REQUESTED IT TO BE A BIRD. He also requested it to be done in pencils and BOY HOWDY i am not the best at free style pencil drawings, so I had to look up a million refs... so if this looks familiar thats why XDD

Carolina Chickadee? Probably not since you're from Canada. They're a bit smaller with a more sharply defined 'beard.'

Oh that's cool, I didn't know there were different types of chickadees! I couldn't tell you really, I just went with the references I found and the birds in my own backyard so I can't exactly promise accuracy. They are very nice looking birds though, always been a favourite of mine

Thank you Im not that good though
okay first you have to sell your soul to the devil XDD for real though, aside from practice (I hate when people say that I WANT MY MAGICAL SOLUTION DANG NABBIT )
two words..... tools and layering
I was hella reluctant to buy all the art tools cause I was dumb and thought I could do the same job with just an hb, but trust me it makes a BIG difference and makes it one million times easier
turning something like these
into something like these
also layering, do the light stuff first THEN the dark stuff, layering helps give the drawing depth and accuracy
lol I don't know if you were joking about the teach me your ways bit but HERE YA GO ANYWAYS!

AND NO I WAS DEAD SERIOUS AND THANK YOU XD

Oh good XDD Im not the best with sarcasm and rhetorical questions so sometimes I just check just in case
Also the tools, I forgot to write lol whoops, are the pencils (at least 6B 4B 2B B HB and 2H), kneadable eraser (optional but it will save you a LOTTTT of struggle) and pencil eraser. THE PENCIL ERASER WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE! they are hard to find but I recommend it.
and dawwwww you make me blush, but with the photo realism (i.e. the people) you have to do this thing called 'grinding' and it literally takes months so I recommend NOT XDD unless you have a huge table and a lot of time on your hands

HMMMM. Maybe when I have more time in the future. xD

And yea! Thouse tools make life less painful!
And when you're ready I'll show you how(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ
