Luna's full moon.

One of the drawings from last night's Picarto stream. The focus of last night's stream was on graphite pencil shading techniques and what one can do with only a small selection of tools. After I had finished the first segment of the evening I asked the audience what the wanted me to draw, and several people wanted an anthro, bat pony, version of a Princess Luna.
All of the shading in this piece was done by using closely spaced lines. This is my preferred method of shading. By varying the pressure of the pencil line, the length of the pencil line, the spacing between lines, and direction of lines, I created the picture you see. The image size is roughly 8.5" x 11" and was done 80lb Springhill Digital vellum finish paper. It was drawn using 0.5mm mechanical leads in HB and 2B. I had no reference for this piece and only had about a minute to come up with an idea in my head. Then I ran with it. Overall drawing time was roughly 2 hours.
