All in one Contest: WK44

Hello fellas, I made a pencil art for this all in one contest , and I'm glad to know you're excited while reading this. This is a portrait I made of one of Facebook friends, and I'll be using it for this contest. His name is Langa ....... I've forgotten his last name though.

I used a 2b pencil for this.

Steps	•

I started by drawing a shape according to the proportions of his head. I added the head warmer and ears as well.
While trying to achieve this, an eraser was used to get rid of mistakes. A sharpener also to keep the tip of the pencil sharp for detailed sketching.

Here which looks good already, I added all the facial features; the brows, lashes, eyes nose mouth and cheeks.
Then I also sketched part of the clothe that is visible.

After the sketching, I stay shading.
First I shaded the eyebrows. This happens to be the darkest pat of the face after and art after the head warmer.
The eye balls too were shaded and detailed properly.
I made sure to add the beards on the chin.
My guy gotta look matured....🤣
I made sure to highlight the dark and bright areas on the face to make it look real.
Of course I know what I'm doing 🌚

Here, I shaded the lips. As always, the upper lip is always darker that then lower lip. So, all that was considered and shaded properly.
I also shaded the neck.
Then I began shading the head warmer.
I used blending technique for the face and neck.
But for the Head warmer, I uses cross-hatching repeatedly to get that dark and shadow texture.

This is a complete shading of the art.
Looking good.
I used a cotton wool to blend the face and make it smooth.
Then used and eraser to get back my bright areas.

This is my final result after adding my username and signature.

Thanks for reading through.
Sheet you in my next post.
