Pencil sketch of Gollum-character drawing/shading study-showing the process step by step

in art •  7 years ago 

Hey there, i am here with another pencil drawing of a fantasy movie character. This time i drew a portrait of the character named gollum from the movie lord of the rings.
Lord of the rings is a famous movie. Though i love fantasy movie i didn't like this movie series that much. at least not as much as i liked harry potter series.
Anyway this characters face looks like something that i want to draw. I drew this same picture about two years ago and by comparing these two drawings you can easily see how much i have improved.

Final drawing:

The same portrait that i drew about two years ago:

And now:

This drawing took me about 12 hours. may be more(not less for sure).
I used hb,2b,4b,6b and 10b wooden graphite pencil. paper napkin as the blending tool.

I don't know to some people, how do they say that the two years back drawing is the better one. that one i did in about 40 minutes(i don't remember exactly but clearly not more than that).

Anyway i took process shots. Lets see those:

I liked the way you presented it. Very detailed, step-by-step process is what should be done on Steemit. I think it is better than uploading only the end product.

yeah.... i got the idea from some other steemian, i liked it and then started doing that

Very good sketch! I hope they make a continuation for Lord of the Rings.

If I put knowing the character out of my mind, your two drawings look like two stages of concept art. I don't think the first one is better but there's a rawness there that I can see why someone would like. Personally I lean toward the refinement of the second one though.

@masummim50 Wonderful! I like your understanding of the lights and darks. It's great that you have tracked your progress over the years, I love to do that too.

Also it is nice to find another traditional pencil artist like myself here on steemit. Most people are using devices now, lol.

actually i use devices too.... when making digital painting.... i am not very good at that yet though

That's great, more is always better, maybe I'll get started too

you should, its actually fun
