Arthur step 5

What do you do when you want confirmation that the drawing is going to turn out looking like the person? You ask a relative, and if they say it doesn't look right? You do what I do and super-impose it onto the original photo. WHEW, thank goodness everything is EXACTLY in the right place. (Sometimes you can't rely on relatives when the drawing isn't finished.)

Anyhoo... here is Arthur step 5, and it will look like the photo when it's finished. If the photo isn't a good one to start with, it's not MY fault. :)

I've started adding pencil charcoal covering the background and laying in the beginnings of the dark details. Still using vine charcoal for the overall shading.



He has a kinky hair do, I'll have to do something with that. Lots more shading to come.
