Complementary to the chess rook, here are 2 chess pawns I drew with graphite pencils.

Plastic is not simple to draw. It usually does not have much texture, like wood, for example.
In addition, plastic (usually) does not shine (have strong contrast) like some metals.

Therefore, gentleness and smoothness are required.

Ahaha I admise that I have a fondness for pencil sharpeners with a reservoir included.. so childish I know 🤣
