Hello people today I am going to show my realistic portrait of Weird man. This drawing took me around 11 hours to complete. According to the steps I first started with outline. After the outline I made the eyes. In iris I used black pen because my pencil was not dark enough. Sketching is easier than other styles but it needs practise of shading because my pencil also used to get blended and strokes were visible but with many practise I got know. In sketching we have to first add base layer of shading and then blend observing the reference. After the blending then we have to add highlight’s in the drawing the same I did in the face the part like hair moustache,eyebrows,iris etc I used pen. The shading is done with graphite mechanical pencil and even in clothes also. Like in the nose I added highlights with eraser only. The face was completed in hair I filled it with marker and added highlights with pencil. In clothes I didn’t blended much because to show texture.

Material used:-
Mechanical pencil- for outline and majority shading
Graphite pencils- for dark areas
Black pen- very dark areas
White gel pens- highlights
White pencil- highlights
Blending stumps- for shading in small areas
Tissue paper- for shading in large areas
