How in the hell.. how do you get it so refined? I don't even understand. Like, I literally cannot comprehend it. Do you blend with your finger or something? All of my pictures end up turning out like #1 or #2.

I'm far from brilliant, I need to practice to grow as an artist. It's a good feeling to see improvement over the years.

How did you keep it the paper so clean??

I use a piece of clean paper under my hand so I don't smudge the graphite.

Hi, after coloring in the area lightly, I then rubbed the whole area down with a piece of plain tissue till blended. I repeated this technique adding layers of darker graphite as I went along and lifting highlights with a kneaded eraser. The smooth Bristol paper is great for blending nice and smooth. ~Linda

I can see why you chose a picture like this to practice skin tone (I don't think she could show anymore skin if she tried). It's a very interesting post in that you've kept track of the various stages you go through as you draw, I find it interesting to see how the progression looks. A lot of artists only post finished works without much evidence of technique but this is really wonderful.

It's always fun to take a peek at another artist's sketchbook.
Keep on exploring your talent. I look forward to your next illustration.

Hi and thank you for the comments!
RogueDerek, it is her! I changed her face and took about 2 inches off of her all around...she was perfect for skin tone practice.
