My latest drawing of a Sten submachine gun with graphite pencils.

It is part of an update to my guide on how to draw torus-shaped objects.

A torus is a complex shape.

The problem with it is that the front part overlaps the back.

So it can be confusing to draw its textures and brightness values.

Many shapes, like rings, bracelets, and car wheels share these characteristics.
Here is an example of a faucet.

Organic shapes, when they turn, do form a torus shape at the place they bend.

Here is an example with many overlapping, torus-shaped, parts, which turn and bend.
