ok first ever charcoal drawing, just a pic of a skull i pulled from google
haha again be kind its a work in progress

first i used some Canson watercolor paper 90lb and used my lightbox to make a quick outline

then i started with a hard charcoal pencil and made some bold outlines and started to shade

then i forget to take more pics till im to this point

i used the prismacolor charcoal set, so far im very pleased with it as i am with all of their products

everything here looks good.
i might suggest shading around the
teeth more. it's the only place you have
actual lines on the drawing. i would
use shading to get rid of those and show
gradients.
for the first time with charcoal though
this is great!
