      Sketching Pear with Shapes

      I got a bit difficult when make stippling texture. I had blend with paper stump but the shadow doesn’t look good. Do I push to hard or my paper or Pencil ? I used 110 gsm paper with 4B faber Castell Pencil. Need Suggestion thanks 😂🙏

        Frenky, this is a really good attempt! 😊 Your stippling is already giving the pears a nice texture and volume. For the shadow, I wouldn’t push harder with the pencil. With 110 GSM paper, heavy pressure can make the surface harder to blend. Try building the shadow gradually with lighter layers and use the stump gently rather than pressing into the paper.
        Also, your 4B is quite dark for building soft shadows. Try a **B or 2B for the base**, then bring the 4B into the darker areas at the end. That will give you a much smoother transition. Keep going, you’re definitely heading in the right direction!
