In this exclusive real-time tutorial from the Drawcember Challenge, Muneeba will guide you through drawing a realistic doughnut with colored pencils, complete with rich chocolate dripping on top. This delicious subject is perfect for practicing textures, shading, and layering techniques. Using warm browns, creamy tones, and highlights, she’ll show you how to build a smooth base, add depth with darker shades, and capture the glossy shine of melting chocolate. You’ll also learn how to blend colors seamlessly, place shadows for volume, and use erasers or a gelly roll pen to create natural highlights that make the doughnut look irresistible and three-dimensional. The process is beginner-friendly while still teaching the importance of pressure control, layering choices, and experimenting with textures to bring food illustrations to life. By the end, you’ll feel more confident in using colored pencils for realistic textures and shiny surfaces. And as usual, the references of this tutorial are included in the Materials section.
