male portrait sketch

Hello steem friends🥰. I hope your all in good health. Today I'm sharing with you a drawing I I made today. I initially wanted to draw Kobe Bryant . A very popular basketballer but I don't think it came out well that's why I'm using this(male portrait sketch)..if you think it looks alright let me know in the comment section then I'll edit the post.

The materials I used are:
-HB,4B,6B pencils
-eraser
-cotton wool for blending
-A4 paper

The steps
STEP 1:
Use a circle to form the head shape then sketch the eyes nose the ear and lips .after that use the 4B to scribble on the places you want to be darker

STEP 2:
Repeat it with a darker pencil, then use your cotton wool to smoothen. After use a HB pencil to scribble everywhere.

STEP 3:
Draw the neck the sketch the folds to make it look more realistic. after that smoothen the whole draw.

STEP 4:
For the last step erase every inch of the paper except your drawing, this is to make your work neat. Then write down your name on your work or your signature. Whatever you like and your done

Thanks is for stopping by my post. I really appreciate it. God bless.
