Finished up this drawing today. It's called "Moonlight Watcher." It's part of a series of graphite drawings depicting animals from the taiga. To see the whole series (so far) you're welcome to visit this link... https://stephkunze.com/taiga-series/
The historically significant American Civil War era Remington .44 Army Percussion Cap & Ball Revolver (circa 1860's). From my sketchbook: HB & 9B graphite pencil on 14cm x 14cm paper.
Practicing tone with different levels of pencil pressure I found very difficult to do because it requires an immense amount of patience and my hat is off to all of you who have mastered it. ⁀⊙﹏☉⁀
