Here's a graphite drawing I did recently. For this piece, I didn't use any reference photos. It all just kind of worked itself out as I manipulated the graphite with a kneaded eraser. It was very labor intensive though. In order to get the pencil on the paper smoothly I had to apply it several times while also going over it with the eraser. I'll bet I went over every bit of it four or five times until I was satisfied with the smoothness and contrast. Looks great though and I plan on doing more of these in the future.
