In this tutorial I'll share some top tips and must have tools for drawing blacking black fur in graphite. How to draw realistic black fur in graphite relies on the layering process and contrast. Without these the fur looks flat. In this black cat graphite time lapse tutorial I'll show the complete process from start to finish and speak about the importance of correct pencil technique which can be applied to any fur texture and colour =).
