In this exclusive realtime tutorial, we’ll be drawing a realistic tiger portrait on toned grey paper using Faber-Castell Pitt pastel pencils. Starting with a 1-inch grid for accurate outlines, I’ll show you how to layer peach, brown, black, and white tones to build the tiger’s fur patterns with depth and contrast. You’ll learn the “sandwiching” method for blending dark and light strokes, tips for crisp whiskers, and techniques to make the eyes shine with 3D highlights. By the end, you’ll have a bold, lifelike tiger study full of texture and detail. References are included in the Materials section.
