Pride

This guy was really strutting as part of  the dance. He was like a cock bird displaying for all to see. The tatters coat is difficult to interpret as I do not want to show each shape but do want to get the idea of it being plumage.

I got a tin of Derwent 12 soft graphic pencils awhile back. I am disappointed in them. They range from H to 9B. The leads from 7B to 9B are broken and the wood shafts started to split after the third sharpening. My favourite for drawing are the Conte graphite sticks. Even the HB makes a smooth line and is easy to sharpen.
