CHARCOAL POSE FIGURE

 I used to draw with charcoal chalk before with my inspiration a pumpkin in A2 drawing paper. It was easy to manage the pressure and the area to shade because it's in big scale. At the same time, really scared to use charcoal as it make the drawing 'burnt' as there are no shading or value towards it.  From my experience using this method, i went to the stationary store to buy a charcoal pencil so that i can point out the outline easily and careful from to ruin my drawing.

So here is my practice drawing of this method.
