Day #41 - Redraw of day #2.

Real eyes realize real lies. My mine just realise that the Internet in my halls is terribly terrible hence why I couldn't upload yesterday.  Originally, I was meant to do a redraw of day #8 but I couldn't find a photo to work from so I chose day #2 and I'm glad I did. I used tonal pencils this time and there certainly is a difference showing in my work. I'm getting to understand now, how professional artists make their drawings so realistic and it's slowly beginning to show in mine. The only problem that I had whilst doing this drawing was the sketchbook paper.  I found the surface to be a bit rough when I did previous pencil studies before, but it was making the pencils look shiny on the surface instead of that usual gritty feeling you get when using pencils. The good thing is that I found a sketchbook from Paperchase that has loads of papers and it's all so smooth.  I recommend you go there for buying sketchbooks, they are brilliant quality.  Til next time! :)
