- In this tutorial I'll show how to draw highly detailed, realistic fur in pastels. I'll be drawing German Shepherd fur for this tutorial and this requires the use of the right layering process. There are many colours to use and building those pencils up correctly is crucial in maximising the depth captured. When drawing any fur in pastels the way we use the pencils makes a big difference to how that fur looks. Adjusting the pencil technique results in a range of pencil strokes that can enhance how three dimensional the drawing looks.

Awww thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️. So pleased my tutorials help. Thank you for the support, it means a lot ❤️🥰
I have a tendency to overdo details how do i stop doing that lol
@@inedinevanderwesthuizen3822 do you mean over do details to soon and jump into them to early or over do details in general and not know when to stop? 😊
@zaratomsart not always sure where to stop the in looks like a ball of hard hair 😂
@inedinevanderwesthuizen3822 when you feel you are at the point where you have that you enough detail I would either put the drawing away and then look at it with fresh eyes. That break will stop you from over working the drawing. The other option is when you feel you have enough detail, take a photo of it on your phone. Looking at art on a smaller size screen can really help is decide if something needs any more work. If you feel like it doesn't then stop adding details. It's a quick and easy way to determine it but is also great for trying to notice anything that we may need to adjust proportions/perspective/flat & enhance depth wise.
@zaratomsart thank u so much one more question should my base layer be as dark as the shadowed area's in that specific area I'm on
@inedinevanderwesthuizen3822 it really depends on the reference photo and what that section of fur looks like. Really tricky to say without seeing the reference photo
