This is my first graphite drawing. I did it from memory of my grand fathers model aa dump truck. I wasnlucky enough to inherit it from him when he passed away. It is still at my family's farm.

Cool, what type of pencils (or graphite sticks) were you using?

[dodgelover]

I used a set of basic artist pencils. Don't remember the brand off hand but they weren't cheap. A lot of the lighter shading was just regular no 2 pencil.used some tortillions to blend it. It is on 2 ply tag board size is approximately 12 x 18 inches. Took about three weeks to complete. I ended up sending it to my daughter who loves that I drew her something.
