To allow for more shading steps, I've cut down the guidelines. Let me know if this works for you. With the No. 2 pencil, start lightly drawing the oval, bisecting line, and crescent lines (for head mass). Then lightly draw lines a. for eyebrows, b. f

Observe where Jensen's features appear in relation to the guidelines. Draw in his eyebrows, eyes, and bags underneath eyes.

I took my blending stump to "draw" in more lines, add more strokes to his hair. His eyebrows, chin, neck and jacket I also smoothed with my blending stump. I used a tissue (which is soft) to smooth out his face around his cheek, jaw, nose and under h

I darkened in his eyes, eyebrows, eyelashes, hair, lips, face shadows, and jacket with my 9B graphite pencil and dark gray pastels. I also added lighter hair strands with a light gray pastel stick. Then I blended with my blending stump to give a smoo
