Graphite Cheetah speed drawing w/ Lachri

Today I'm giving you some tips on drawing / shading a cheetah in graphite to create realistic fur. I've used Ain 4b hi-polymer lead in a mechanical pencil (I can't find the 4b anymore. The "stein" line is not the same). A variety of derwent and prisma graphite pencils, shading tools, a tombow mono eraser, kneaded erasers and worked on Stonehenge vellum paper.
