Description
My finished project of Leliana. From Dragon Age Origins. This is based off of the CG version of her. I really hope you like. This is my second well portrait. I'm trying to for Realism. This is my first attempt at blending. As I find it actually looks really good. I think I'm going to end up getting blending sticks. Because it's awesome.Related content

"I'm here on behalf of because your piece was in the group's critique requested folder."
I'm really into black and white graphite portraits, and therefore I was attracted by your work! I really appreciate the fact that you started to try and draw in a realistic way. The only thing I'd suggest you to improve your work, is to 'smooth' your stroke: if you look at a picture, for example, you won't see exact outlines or definite 'edges', for example for what concernes the lips and the nose in your drawing; moreover, I'd suggest not to be 'scared' to draw more evident and dark shadows, to give more sense of depht and three-dimensionality. Try, for example, to darken lips and eyes corners, the hair, and the side not directly hit by the light.
I hope I managed to explain myself properly, since English isn't my mother tongue, and I also hope you will find my critic useful and not offensive! Keep on drawing, you'll definitely improve (:

This is very nice. I see a bit more shading here, area-wise. The shading encompasses a bigger area now, the problem is it still isn't getting any darker.

I actually have a fear of getting darker... It's not the shading itself. It's the pencils I use. I used F for her face, and HB for her clothing, B for her armor, and I think I used either 2B, or hB for her hair. I've been told that I go to light. My next picture is going to be a little darker. I think HB, and 2B for the face, 6,7B for the hair, and 2,3B for the clothing.

O.O I don't have those 1B 7D 8H whatever pencils so I don't exactly get what you're referring too

Ohhh. Okay. So there are different pencils for different shades of graphite. H means hard. Usually it's used for sketching, drawing out the base of a picture. It's usually very light on paper. B is for soft. It's for shading filling in areas. There are differing levels of both for instance H would be the softest of the pencils Hardness. 9H is the hardest I believe. Vice versa for soft.
