I have started on the head and ears with colored pencil. There is none below the the collar. I have used white first for the highlights and light areas. I then usually go over the white with color as needed. Using white is typically my first step. Do your pencil strokes in the direction of the fur. I have also used burnt ochre, spanish orange, scarlet lake, cream, black, true blue so far. The true blue is in the background and a little on the dog. Will use it on the collar most likely (will do that and the mouth next class among other things). |
