Flamin chrome

I finished this last night. this is # 3 in my pencil exersize.With this I just wanted to do a detailed technical style nothing realy artsy,more of an illustration. I chose this picture of a buds bike that was photographed for a mag.I used Faber-Catell #2B&4B pencils on this one.I was a fun little drawing but very challenging for me. I think I'll stick with portraits, well hope to hear some feedback Thanks Rick
