Woo, finished my half of the art trade with one of my awesome artist friends, Skye!

Was a bit of a challenge drawing this, but I enjoyed every moment of it, plus it felt nice drawing a decent pencil drawing again. This was drawn using pretty much three pencils, a 2B 0.7, a 2H 0.7 and a 0.3 with some or other lead for the details. Done on a piece of 120gsm drawing paper. Also used my trusty ol' tortillon for helping smooth out the shading. Now I didn't keep track of time, but since I'm so easily distracted, it took longer than I had hoped. Sketched this 19 days ago, but as the majority of those days were in my exams, I didn't draw much. After finalizing the lines, I finished the shading in the last three days.

    Very nice, quite the pretty lady.

    Well done, I have always loved the look of traditional pencil. There is something about your shading that makes her look a little flat, however. Anyways, nice job. You earned yourself a favorite.

      Thank you!! ^^

      I'm a great fan of traditional myself. It's where I started with art after all. Loooooove pencils! :D

      Flat? In a specific place or overall? Is it very noticeable too?

      Thank you so much again!!

        Sure thing! I was just talking in general, first impressions of the art. A good point example would be her right leg. It doesn't look "round", it's kinda flat. I can't really point out why. I am always bad at noticing specifics, but better at the general feel. I wouldn't say it is a big deal, the picture still looks fantastic.

        Anyway, good luck with your future art! :)

          Yeah, you're right, I should have added more value to that leg. Especially on the left edge. But yeah, I'ma try add more depth in future drawings. Thank you for telling me about it!

          I'm glad you like it!

          And thanks!! ^^
