I did this as a quick test. Flipping through my many reference photos I wanted to find something not too complicated to try out these new woodless graphite pencils that I picked up. All I can say is wow !!!! they are like butter. Smooth and dark ... exellent pencils. It's nice that you can shade with them as they form a chisel shape to cover a wider area. My only minor complaint was that I seemed to get a bit more graphite on my hands than with regular pencils. Not a big deal as I'm used to having to watch the areas that I've already drawn over, being lefthanded I usually work from right to left or from the center and rotate outwards. I've always known that next to a pretty face, a woman's bottom was the next major trait that attracted me to someone, but a woman's back is magic. The smooth flowing curves is just devine. Can it be that I'm a backman ??? Hmmmm ...
