I used a 2B for this. I surprised myself, as I really thought I had bit off more than I could chew so to speak. I just drew the shaped, started light and then just went darker and darker in the areas that needed to be dark.
It was hard, as my close up glasses were no good, they aren't for this close, (nose to paper) and my graduated glasses are not real good either. I can see I will have to make that appointment with the eye specialist this month.. Too frustrating..
This is far farm perfect, my holes are not in the straight rows they should be. I should have hunted out my 4B pencil too for darker darks..
Nice one JJ .....I need to hunt out some darker pencils .......
