My pencil drawing : portrait of my friend with process shots.
Hi Steemians! Today i want to share with you all my pencil drawing, which i made for my friend. I have used graphite pencils for the drawing and i have included the process shots too.
Drawing duration : 10 hours.
**Process : **
First, i made the outline using a 0.5mm mechanical pencil.
Added light shading on the face with a HB pencil.
Then i made the eyebrows, eyes and the lips using 2B, 4B and a 8B pencil.

Added a little bit of shading on the face with a 2B pencil and blended the graphite using a soft tissue.
