I want you to see how helpful it is to do an accurate and clean outline. You can see the wet folds, right? Check this out. What's interesting is I haven't used a pencil yet during this stage. I took a blending stump (since it won't leave lines and will cover a larger area) and LIGHTLY shaded laying the stump tapered part flat (like a pencil). Then I took it's point and “drew” with it's pointed edge in the smaller areas (their hair, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, cheeks, side of face, mouth, and chin. I have not used the kneaded eraser yet. If your picture looks like this. This is the 2nd layer or stage. There are no highlights or anything. Does this look flat? Yes or no?
