Girl from my imagination.
my subject came from my broad imagination, I made this post to share my little knowledge about Sketching or Pencil Shading.
Introducing: Pencil Shading:
For me Pencil Shading is used in drawing for the tones or levels of darkness on paper by applying a darker shade for darker areas, and less with a lighter shade for lighter areas.
And now I will show you the Step by Step Process on this Drawing and how it was done.
STEP 1 : Start with the Eyes
It is more interesting for me to draw the eyes of the subjects rather than the lining of the face or the other parts of the Subject.Because it makes the drawing to look more alive faster.By the way I drew the outline of the eyes first before I shade it.
STEP 2 : The Nose and The Mouth
Here,I did not make any outline for the nose, I just followed the guide of gridlines and start shading the dark part using My Paper stamp dipped on the collected shredded dust of sharpened 8B pencil.And for the Mouth,I drew an outline first to make it proportion and then I started to shade it( For me,in shading,using zigzig stroke is not good because it also affects the level of toning of shading,So I am shading my drawing by Parallel stroke of the hand to estimste the level of shading.
STEP 3 : The Lining of the Face and It's Other Details
The first thing I did here is to draw an outline for the chin part and shaded it to look more the drawing alive.And then I continued to make an outline for the face and detailed it by shading.
STEP 4 : The Hair
The hair for me is the most critical part.Because it is the time to be more careful about the neatness of our drawings.So what I did here, I get a scratch paper to use as My protection while I am drawing the outlines and while I am shading it using 8B with so much pressure to darken it.
