I have decided to apply all the tips from the video but somehow I felt more inspired to try out on a Paprika :), overall I am happy with the results. 

For the process although I believe adding the black for the shading is good, I went with the complementary and analog colors of Red (more as a challenge to myself) and got surprised about the results. I know it could improve, but overall I set a timer with 30min on the clock for this project :) 

Materials used: 

• Paper Strathmore Toned Tan Mixed Media A5 (I think it goes really well with the colored pencils :) )
• Faber Castell polychromos
• White gel pen (Sakura Gelly Rolls)
