I would have expected it to smudge, but it didn't. Over the weekend I bought a pastel pencil and was surprised to find that it was very similar. Colored pencil from a quality manufacturer (Prismacolor or similar.Crayola won't give you the best results!) and you'll find that it is basically the same as drawing with a regular pencil, yet no smudging!:) Works for me, at least.

One thing that I like to do a lot is to use a colored pencil instead of a graphite pencil. Are there ways to prevent this?Įquipped with a 3S battery, its max speed can reaches 80km/h. I greatly dislike drawing dark values in a sketchbook due to how it smudges onto the facing page when I close it. You've got a great foundation to build upon:) Keep it coming. with me, a lot of my work gets stuck near the mid values. Here are a couple of posts that I quickly dug up that show this: An example from one of redpandafire's posts: Something from Rebeccak's recommended shading tutorial (I have this problem a lot too. Have you ever seen anyone use a 'value guide' type of tool, where they will draw a few boxes (as few as 3 or as many as 10) and shade them in to make a scale from black to white? This can be a helpful reference for trying to get a full value range in your drawings. I agree w/ AbuAmir- your construction and line-work are really strong, and the next step is pushing the lights and darks. There are a few life studies, drawing from imagination, etc. I am currently going through the book to sketch copies and do the exercises to better retain the information. One of the books suggested to me was Drawing the Head and Figure by Jack Hamm. It was an extraordinary workshop and experience. I recently took part in Robert Chang's 'Becoming a Better Artist' workshop here on CGSociety. I had a PDF of this but my old compt that had it died. Dr Paul Richer| Artistic Anatomy Richard Schmid.
