pencil drawing of my biggest barbel {a fish lol}

Hey every1 just thought i would share this pic i have just finished. It was done using graphite pencils, hb,b and 9b. im quite pleased with how its come out but the camera never seems to capture it properly because of the natural sheen from the graphite, thats y i have put 2 pics up.
Anyway i no its a bit different to my usual drawings but it was still fun to do. Also the other pic is just a quick sketch for future use i thought some people might like it.

>>> Great drawings, as always..

Those are gorgeous. Pencil never looks that good for me.

Wow, that's very impressive. I love working with graphites and pencils, but my main problem with them is the mess they leave, and keeping your hands away from messing up the artwork.

Again, that's amazing work. What's the size of the sketchpad you're using?

thats fabaro! I did a pencil setch of me and my fella once but thers noway it turned out as good as yours has.
keep it up. it woyld be nice to see more.

Wow, those are great. The expression on the face is awesome. Love the use of tones too. Very, very awesome :) :) :)

Cool.

Amazing as always! :) You never stop suprising us!

Hey guys and girls, thx for all the nice comments. Hey Agent proto the way i work with pencils is to do the main sketch and then finalise the drawing so i can clearly see where i want to go and after that i start at the top right corner of the picture and then always work away so my hand only rubs over the sketch and never on the final detailed work, so instead of drawing the main character {Me} first i work from one corner to the other corner. i hope u get what im saying, also when u do the sketch only use a hard pencil so it smudges less.
This drawing has been done on an A3 pad.

Stuff like this makes me realise just how fundamentally untalented I really am. Good work.

I'm very impressed. Those are fantastic.
I look forward to seeing more from you.

Well done gix, the pencil contrast is really impressive. Great drawings!
