Lateral View of part of the Bony Thorax
I have attempted drawing this before and though it looks relative straight forward, have always ended up squashing it somewhat.
This is also done with just one pencil, an 8B.
This is the first time I have used an 8B as I usually only go down to a 4 and occasionally use a six when i need something black/black.
The usual range of pencils I use are
4B 2B HB 2H 4H
Whilst on subject on what I draw with, should also note, I use a blending stub as well, which is essentially a bit of tightly rolled up paper.
Finally, just a note this blog is moving over to wordpress soon, I am looking to have it moved by November 1st. Please visit the site after that date, as you may need to update your RSS subscription.
Wow, what wonderful drawings! I would love to pick up my pencils and start drawning again, maybe one time soon. What a huge project you've taken on. Good luck.
Thanks for the comment, Just tidying the site at the moment so please do pop back soon
