Description ((Note: Sorry, my camera is very shoddy. This is the best I can do, with touch-ups like digitally improving the lighting. There is a LOT of detail you can't see. I am also unable to crop images properly, so you'll unfortunately have to deal.))

Graphite pencil to map out the form, then varying charcoals to put in tone. Further tone and smooth texture and fading added by moving charcoal around with a damp brush.

I love the shoulder muscles. I love a lot about this one, actually. I'd go in-depth, but I'm far too tired.

Oh excellent. I'm glad to see more of your work.I really like the spine, I feel like I could touch it.
Do you draw from live models or memory?
Good shading too.
I'm a little to tired to give a super-somment, but I'll tell you that I appreciate seeing your work.

I do NOT draw from memory. x.x

I go to life-drawing classes with nude models. ^_^

I'm also too tired to give a fantastic reply, but I do appreciate your comment a lot. Thankyou.

Mmmm... Most definitely awesome. The human body is a gorgeous thing. I like the high contrast with the shadows!

Out of all the ones you posted today, this one is my favorite. Excellent job accentuating the spine without making it look vulgar.
