Sketch study (The Edgy Girl) So I'm practicing sketching and each week I try to at least do one study . For this I always keep looking for interesting and unique references like this one I found on Pinterest it was a girl with glasses braids and piercings I loved her pose and everything so I felt inspire to draw her. This one sketch is all about me shading and how I shade . For this I went with 8b pencil and started hatching the shirt the hair. The reason why I just was experimenting with seeing positive and negative spaces so for that I wanted to just color it first and then erased the highlighted parts .

After that I just picked my blending stump #4 and started blending the charcoal on the paper then I just used the same stump to shade her nose and jawline with her glasses too. I then took a 3b pencil and stump to shade her septum piercing , I took the kneadable erasure to erase the hair highlights and the chin . I did the eyebrows darker and just blended the eye hood with the stump. It was looking like a mushy muddy mess so I outlined all again with a 2hb pencil and here is the final look .

The girl looks really like a fun , edgy ,bold and adventures person so that is what I wrote in title . I kinda always like going for more funky and different references just so I can learn more about facial anatomy and how different things work . Although now I see some mistakes in this even but I also can see how much I learnt by practicing and how much I have improved. That's all for today Thank you for your precious time and support ❤️ and comment down below what you think about this sketch .
