STEP 1.

Start out by picking your pencils. I used a 4H pencil for light shading/lines, an HB pencil for shading, a B pencil for darker shading/lines, and a 6B pencil for the darkest shading. You can use whichever pencil works best for you to sketch. I used a 6B pencil.

Start out with a rough and basic sketch. Use the guidelines if you need them. Just try to get a basic idea of the features down.

Your sketch should look something like this. I softened my lines a bit by lightly blending over the drawing with a paper towel.

Use a kneadable eraser to erase any unwanted shading and B and HB pencil to start roughly shading. Start shading at the eyes and forehead.

STEP 11.

Start finishing up the hat by working on its outline. 6B may be to soft for outlining the hat so use a B pencil instead to make the hat's edges crisp.

STEP 12.

After you're done with the hat shade in the background. I roughly shaded with a 6B pencil then used a blending stump to smooth out my shading.

I live in Italy. I was living in America, and speechlessody knows who Chuck Norris is in my country, so when I busted out with a Chuck Norris joke no one knew what the fudge I was talking about O_o I also have a Chuck Norris shirt, which got all of my Italian friends confused lol
