Colored pencils are ideal for achieving smooth blending and detailed shading on the face and hair in this portrait. Fine-tip markers can be used for crisp lines on the garment stripes, and watercolor pencils offer a soft, buildable effect.
Start by coloring the large areas like hair and sleeve first, using light, even pressure. For the face, use a single light shade and gradually add layers if you want to build depth. Work from the center outward to avoid smudging the lines.
Experiment with blending multiple shades for realistic skin tones, using soft layers to create depth. Add subtle highlights to the hair to enhance its natural texture and dimension. Consider using cross-hatching or stippling for background elements to add visual interest.
